ClumsyDude Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Brent, that's breathtaking. Very rare to see an NMF executed so well, even on this site. Super stuff! Cheers Jim mpk and CANicoll 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANicoll Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Wow, simply stunning work. If you were to put that in a natural setting I'm sure it would be indistinguishable from the real thing. The skill in your NMF is amazing! I must have missed your build thread - but will be looking for it. The wing work in particular caught my eye, and the fantastic natural weathering of the wing walk is great. Well done and thanks for sharing!

Out2gtcha Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Terrific! SUPER duper job on the NMF. Really looks great, and is a nice departure from normally seen OS2U schemes. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
