Having built several of Chris's Crotale III's and IV's, this geometry is much different. As the Crotale's and Dave's Viper are based on the Battlestar Galactica Vipers, they are going to be similar, as are the other Vipers out there.

If they weren't similar to the original, what would be the point?

Same subject matter. Of course they'll be similar.

If you want a viper that looks different, how about this one?

or this one
Kungfu Panda - Master Viper

you find what interesting?
if you have something to suggest Blaaack, then don't beat around the bush.
come right out and make your accusations.
or, are they courtesy of some other zealot and you've just been directed to pass it along? lol

I don't know that site (Ebbles) or that artist or ever seen that model.
Until now.

if you'd care to see my original corel files, then I can...
no...
why should I show you anything?

you can wait and see the model sheet when it gets released
and compare them for yourself
and then come back and apologize to me.

or, just go away.

hahaha I just had a look at this Ebbles Viper clone model and all its derivatives.
(Looks like nice stuff...especially for free)

Not only is it vastly differently in style, shape and design, its three pages of parts!

I know my model hasn't been released yet,
but if ya paid any attention to this point,
you'd already know how simplified my designs are and only one sheet of parts!
(Mostly one-sheet...I have only ever done two two-sheet models)

I think I've done enough original koolwheelz designs that suggesting I may have copied someone else's design at this point...is...well...very petty I think.

Let's see ... I could say ... no I can't. Hmmm

Can't say that thought either.

Or that one.

Not real sure why some folks like to take jabs and then they get away with it. It's not like he doesn't know BG. My personal feeling is that they do their little attacks on you because you don't put up with their shenanigans and call them out when they play their stupid games.

Maybe in the New Year they will grow up

Isn't the point to make a BSG Viper model look something like a BSG Viper?
And wouldn't that mean one Viper model is going to look very much like another Viper model?
LOL
They both are going to look eerily like...a BSG Viper.
LMAO

But we're not talking about that.
Are we?
The actual accusation is that I have stolen or somehow copied someone's else's paper model template for a Viper model.

But since the model sheet hasn't yet been released, how can you make that assumption at this point?

Unless...wait...this isn't even about "stolen templates"? ...is it?
LOL
Pathetic.

Well, if nothing else, you can pat your zealot pals on the back again...you've succeeded in marring another PM.com thread.
Happy New Year

First off, I am not suggesting, implying or making any kind of accusations. I was just making a simple comparison. When I say your version, it reminded me of his. I do not care to see your original corel files. Not only that, but I speak for myself. I do not speak for anyone else at ANY OTHER site (to include Zealot). However, I do find it amusing that you decided to take such a leap, to think that I am accusing you of anything at all. If I were to have accused you of anything, I would have come right out and made the accusation. I do not mince my words. I do not beat around the bush. I call a spade a "spade". It is you who are reading things that are not there into what I have said. As for owing you an apology, I owe you nothing, because I did nothing that would warrant an apology from me. Like I said, I was making a simple comparison. If anyone owes someone an apology, it is you that owes me an apology, for misreading what I had posted. Point out where I accused you of copying or stealing.
Have a happy new year!

If you and you buddies didn't have such a track record, it would be a leap, but as it is...
