Fantastic build as always.

Thanks, Marco. Now I'm wondering which should bypass my list-to-do, the C1 Trader,
the S3 Viking (which I have already done - Nobi's and WMV) but Bruno's, not yet, or Bruno's S2 Tracker?
May have to toss a coin for a number of times.

How about doing the Supermarine attacker with landing gear and belly radome? I left it off on purpose in my design.

Wasn't that a belly tank rather than a radom?

[John Bowden]

correct Michi......... fuel tank.

[scissorsandplanes]

Yes !!! I learned something today.

Wan't sure about the thing, first wanted to call it a radar radome, but had too much doubts.

Hi Bruno, landing gears, I can manage but belly fuel tank, I don't have the ability to design one
unless of course you provide it. Then I'll build it.

Didn't know whether I could make it, so gave it a try. After some trial and error and lots of
paper taming and sculpting, the belly tank came to life. I have to laminate it with clear paint
before gluing it over another layer, then formed it into somewhat like a canopy upside down.
Some trimming was necessary when gluing it to the belly of the fuselage.

You should know which plane I'm talking about by now. Yes, the Supermarine Attacker.
The nose looks a little too pointed. I'll sand it down and round as the build runs along.
This is just the initial stage. Kind of taking a break from the ongoing beta build.

my f-25 looks like crap. I don't know how im going to draw all those lines in or add textures.

[papermate]

I get confused, whose design is this F-25, can I see it?
