Logan: Looking forward to this "with antic-i-pa-tion".  :D

Logan, that's truly gorgeous work.  I don't think I'd get that degree of verisimilitude on a 3D CAD model or the drawing made from it.

Thank you all for the wonderful compliments.  I hope the finished profiles live up to them.  How about an update?  It's pretty close to finished, so I may not post another preview.  Next image may just be a finished profile...



Cheers,

Logan

'Twould need little but polishing to be done up as one of the record-setters.  IIRC, the airframe acquired by the USSR was like that and just had red stars added to it.

Sorry for the delays on this one, guys.  We're still actively working on it.  My partner in crime on this one came down with bubonic plague this weekend, but I thought I'd show you how far it's coming.  Here's a close up of the unfinished product at 100%.



Enjoy!

Cheers,

Logan

Increasingly better and more realistic,depth of the rivets looks so good,this style reminds me of Thierry Dekker's profiles.
Good job Logan,keep up!

Thanks so much, Coops!  It's still coming along pretty well, though I haven't had a chance to work on it this weekend.  With any luck, I might get some tomorrow, but we'll see.
