Aaron,

John Bowden did a great job on the repaint, but I hope you'll consider fixing what appears to be an error. I can't tell for sure from the build without seeing a bottom view.

Comparing the model to a video of the real deal (https://youtu.be/V5B7Eyejk4Q), I think the orange nose scallop is misshapen. The video shows the scallop centered on the forward fuselage. On the model, the point of the scallop is way too low on the fuselage.

Thoughts? I have the original repaint file (sans the 230 on the nose) if you want it.

BTW, I haven't forgotten the NASA A3J Vigilante repaint. Just haven't had much time to work on it. I'm eliminating lots of the minor panel lines which, IMO, make the model look kind of cluttered.

Alternatively, you can just go with the files I sent previously. One thing you should fix is the intake warning. As shown in the pix, it should be solid red with the "WARNING JET INTAKE" lettering.

Beautiful build! I really like the black B-57 in the video too.

It does look too low. I've pulled it off the site while I make some adjustments.
