LSP_Paul Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 Karl, She is absolutely gorgeous! I know we are our own worst critics, but man you're selling yourself short it's far better then a 1 footer! Ya got 6 days to get ready for the Group build of a lifetime! Great Job!

P Stoner Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Super job on the Candy Cane. She looks very well done to me. I plan on building the same jet and this WIP has been a very inspiring boost. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Boillot Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Excellent Karl ! You clearly had less of a battle with this one than your MiG-29. One last question : do you have a thing with red and white stripes ? Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackbetty Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Paul, thank you for the kind words, if you need the decals, drop me a line Hubert, thank you too. hmmm, red stripes? maybe i´m biased, because of the austrian flag..... (j/k) the scooter in the vietnam GB will be blue/white on the tail, so theres a change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 VERY nice! Moreover, this is one of my favorite schemes. This demonstrates once again that it is a pity Revell USA stopped making large scale kits. The eagle was one of their very last large planes, if not the last and it was quite a nice kit. I love your post showing the kit and the full scale plane. This looks like a tutorial for photographers as this clearly demonstrates the focal depth difference !

blackbetty Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 thanx thierry could you please explain waht you mean with the focal depth difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Well, if you compare the picture of the model with the one of the full scale plane, it is clear you took the picture of the model from a very similar angle. However, the difference of lens type results in a very noticeable difference in perspective depth. Just to prove it compare the difference in length of the nose of both planes. The model one looks far longer whereas this is not the case. Thierry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
