Thank you, Dimitar.

Any thoughts on taking the E-2 and making a C-2? I think the wings are the same, but with some modifications to the fuselage (maybe longer).

Just a thought!

Nice build paper, real clen lines. Getting that curve in the fuselage just behind the cockpit looks like it might be tricky to get right. It's easy to see why you like her so much. There's a lot going on with this airplane. It's a great add to the collection. May I ask what type of camera you use to take your photos? Thank you paper. waddy

Russ, do you mean the C2A Greyhound which is presented at No. 49 of this series? Perhaps you could go back a few post to see it. Look like I'm Santa here.

Dimitar, will start after finishing photoshopping it. BTW, do you know anything about PS, AI or Inkscape etc. If you do, you can do it yourself and it's real fun.

Waddy, thanks. I'm using Pany's Lumix DMC LX2 which is quite an old model by now. I have a Nikon D5000 but the Lumix is more handy to use. What I do is use aperture priority with F stop at 8 (the maximum on my camera) to get a longer focal length. Set the selftimer to 2 sec and use a tripod for various angles. Then it's almost certain that you'll get good pic of the model. If you use the "auto" on your camera, you'll get blurry parts of the plane that might not be in focus. Unless of course if it's your intention to do so.

Have finished building a naval raptor as requested by Dimitar and also emailed yesterday to Ojimak for his permission to show the repaint, a total of 17 pics of it. No reply from Ojimak has been received so far, so we've gotta wait. But to jump the gun, this is one of the pic under request for permission to show.
