WoW, This model make me an inspiration for this rescue Jolly Green bird!!

[Texman]

Well, after a small layoff while a part was corrected, I now have the engine bay and cowling installed.
There are some tricky curves, and mine did not turn out very clean in some spots,
but it is still a learning exercise. I never claimed to be an expert or perfect modeller!

looks awesome! do you suppose its designed so that it will blow up in scale well?

[Texman]

Thanks Chris! I'm not sure by what you define as "well". I blew it up 313% to 1/32 (if my math is correct) as a trial,
and there is considerable pixelation. But since I don't rescale that way, I may have done something incorrectly.

There is progress, tail boom is finished, sponsons are finished, just need landing gear, fuel tanks and blades.
Sorry there hasn't been much update, I've got some health issues been slowing me down the last
couple of weeks. Slowly getting back up to build speed though, so no worries!

I hope you get to feeling better there Ray, Health is always important!! way more so than models. glad for some progress. your build is looking great so far there..
