  1. Outstanding work on the flight deck! This has special significance for me. My dad worked on avionics components for the B-66, the A3’s evil blue twin (USAF) when he was stationed at RAF Sculthorpe (my birth place). I wish Trumpeter would produce the B-66 as well...
  2. Beautiful!! No other words are needed...
  3. I love this! I’m a big fan of scratchbuilding!!
  4. That’s one of the best paint jobs I’ve ever seen! Beautifully done. I’ve never been of a fan of wheels up models, but I might have to make an exception here. i especially love the way you did the red on the nacelles. Ive got two unbuilt. This gives me inspiration!
  5. This is about as good as it gets! I especially love the crisp yet subtle panel lines. Beautiful work!!
  6. The 144th FW based at Fresno CA. I know it well. I’m in the Cal Guard based at Beale AFB. Looking forward to more on this gem.
  7. Off to a good start! Great job on that seat! Especially the seatbelts. Those are tricky
  8. Very nice would do far! Did you include an interior?
  9. I have the same problem 😁Only I couldn’t even come close to that work of awesomeness
  10. How did you achieve those panel lines in Blender? I’ve tried numerous approaches that yielded less than optimal results.
  11. Thanks! I start with a bulkhead similar to what you described. I do the canopy separate as you suggested. I run into issues with the subdivision surface when putting in edge control loops. It never ends up looking quite right. I think more practice is required. At least my current results vaguely resemble an RB-66
  12. Do you usually start with a cylinder, put in loop cuts, and rough out the basic shape, or do you start with planes, extruding them along the reference pictures? Ive been struggling with an RB-66, and can’t get past the forward part of the fuselage. I can never get it to look right..
  13. That’s starting to really take shape. The finishing job is looking superb!
  14. I’m in awe. It’s difficult to believe that this will be your first finished model. Your skills are professional grade!!! I especially love the work on that pilot figure!
