And it will have custom features and a nonstandard paint job :omg-:

Now I'm very curious, what scheme you have in mind?

Cheers
John

Basher I ain't home that is a motel room :yush: Blade the scheme will be that grey primer color with purple stripes :yarr:

Well that was freakin nerve wracking

Dude and cockpit ( dang I am going blind)

The lighting in this hotel room suuuucks :yush:

looking really good, coming along nicely too, the lil extra touches like the rcs. thrusters and engine piping definately add detail to it, looking forward to seeing it progressing

(aw theres no 'cool' or thumbs up smiley)

cheers, Joe

That pilot looks great! Didn't know you did figures! :)

Hey thanks y'all. TTCAT I have actually painted armys of 25 mm mini's both for me and others but that was when I was younger. I really can't see well enough any more to really do them justice. :zombie: I need one of those big magnifying glasses or Lasic or something.

That's some mighty fine detailing, Ron, especially on the engines!

This is not going to be just your average Viper, that's for sure!

Pilot's awesome. Yes, we're all getting older. Invest (or steal) a pair of those Magnavision goggles....me and Eddie Miller swear by 'em, right Ed? You'll be unlimited once you get a pair.

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #35 on:** December 29, 2011, 08:50:34 AM »

Thanks y'all I'll look into those goggles :want:

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #36 on:** January 02, 2012, 09:52:19 AM »

Howdy all y'all

Happy New Year :omg-:
I got a day off so I spritzed on some stripes. This is also my first try at weathering with salt :yush:

Gotta wetsand out those stripes :slow:

John Howling Mouse · « **Reply #37 on:** January 03, 2012, 09:30:42 AM »

Whatchutalkinbout, Willis? Why are you gonna wet-sand out those stripes? They look terrific, no?

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #38 on:** January 04, 2012, 10:26:52 AM »

Please allow me to clarify

I did not mean I intended to sand OFF the stripes. It is just that they came out kinda lumpy due to me not making the salt application heavy enough in spots . There are still little grains under heavy paint that don't want to just wash off and make nifty missing paint areas. A little bit o light wet sanding with a super fine stick should make every thing slick :yarr:

Doom! · « **Reply #39 on:** January 04, 2012, 12:29:55 PM »

Just remember, when the wing becomes translucent, it's smooth enough!

Lookin' good Ron.

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #40 on:** January 04, 2012, 12:58:48 PM »

Boy don't I know it

I find my self spending more time trying to super detail a frikken OOB build than I would spend on on of my radical kitbashes :yush: :zombie:

finsrin · « **Reply #41 on:** January 04, 2012, 02:19:00 PM »

Pilot and interior detail is super duper over the top. Fine all around.
Thinking about a Sidewinder or AMRAAM on those empty wing tips ?

Brian da Basher · « **Reply #42 on:** January 05, 2012, 07:57:18 AM »

Yowsa that's sharp, Ron! Love the color too. Goes very well with the base.

Brian da Basher

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #43 on:** January 05, 2012, 11:39:25 AM »

Hey thanks y'all.
Finsrin this one will just be a basic OOB build so I can someday display it with a series of Vipers I am building. I got one back at the house that will get a freakin radical kitbashin. :yarr:
Stay tuned :omg-:

Bladerunner · « **Reply #44 on:** January 05, 2012, 01:16:08 PM »

That looks super-cool! :want:

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #45 on:** January 06, 2012, 09:56:44 AM »

Thanks bubba. I hope to get some detailing done Sunday.

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #46 on:** January 09, 2012, 08:38:49 AM »

Well it's my day off

So here is detail paint

I will remask the canopy and glosscote for decals :)

Brian da Basher · « **Reply #47 on:** January 09, 2012, 10:42:20 AM »

Holy cow!!! What a show-stopper! The detailing really makes it take flight!

Ron, your Viper is Texas-sized impressive!

Brian da Basher

sotoolslinger · « **Reply #48 on:** January 09, 2012, 10:56:01 AM »

Awww bubba you flatter me.

Actually I think only being able to work on my stuff one day a week has made me pay more attention

John Howling Mouse · « **Reply #49 on:** January 09, 2012, 10:59:49 AM »

Looking great, Ron. Wonder what passersby in the hotel parking lot thought you were up to?
