Title: Neuspotter N.a.
Post by: Dr. YoKai on June 23, 2014, 04:08:13 AM

 One of Kow Yokoyama's most iconic designs, the Neuspotter -
 (http://www.trooperpx.com/AFS/ImagesMaK/nit24116.gif)
 (itself inspired in part by the Star Wars 'Probe Droid' ) has had a
 number of iteration over the years. The Spotter Neuer Art is my take
 on the concept. This is assumed to be a slightly later version of the
 original, with the head specifically redesigned for atmospheric operation
 and to facilitate cooling of the electronics in the same.

 As you can see, I'm warming up a bit for the WW1 GB this Autumn with the paint scheme.
 Thanks for looking!

You've certainly nailed the classic W.W. I "mauve & green" which was a truly inspired choice for this marvel!

Well done, Doc!
