1/200 C-2A Greyhound

Hello all

After getting a little burnt out on the alizé i decided to convert my e-2 hawkeye design into a c-2 greyhound. Given all the commonality between the two, this was a pretty quick design but still took some work to get that fuselage shape right. Here are the pics of the prototype—note that the rear fuselage had an alignment error that has since been corrected. I plan on doing a couple of liveries for the greyhound and of course will release them here.

I hope you enjoy!

I think it's pretty cool how that plane turned out on you

As always I will support you in this project

Thanks, guys

I finished making some corrections/additions and adding panel lines and color for a base model. Will get to building this soon, although i am limited by printer access at the moment. More to come soon!

The pieces in need of testing have been added to the second prototype (although printer access is clearly still an issue) and everything fits pretty well. I added a piece to better connect the wing to the fuselage and i think it turned out fairly well, still a few tweaks but i should have a completed build as soon as i have a printer to print it

I assume you noticed the national marking on the fuselage is upside down.

Can't blame the printer for that one!

Looking forward to the finished product PE.
