A Lockheed "Rounder"

[nigel richards]

LOL Variants aren't quite the effort as an all new project Sir!

Seems like you left out the most fun project of all though. Wore out my pedals on the clay oval with this one.

This by the way was Damian Radice's last completed paint project to my knowledge.

Nice looking light aircraft Sir! is that a grumman?
Didn't realise you had done a modern light aircraft...

Awesome looking dragster in the foreground too.

Adds a nice touch of realism.

LOL guys. At 2 aircraft per year, that list requires 17 years to complete. :isadizzy:

One day, maybe a B26 but right now I cannot see past the Dash 7, Avia 57, the Harpoons and Lodestars.

Here's an interesting video I guess from a movie. You can see Lockheed twins at the beginning but the Bristol Fairchild Bolingbroke is the focus here.

That is one ugly nose! Thinking down the road about a Blenheim series?

LOL Not at all. I ran across this video while looking for more Lockheed materials.

Some other Lockheed videos from the Harpoon rebuild have been posted at youtube. From this link (17 mins) you should see all of the other links.

I would never want you to do that sir

Just about wrapped up on the exterior model and hope to finish it Monday night. Gardening has taken preference this weekend

Got the bomb bay done, new prop spinners/collars, co-pilot seated and animations borrowed from the Grumman pilots, wing/engine nacelle interfaces smoothed, main gear braces in place, etc.

oh my! that's gorgeous! will look good in natural metal (not polished) finish and puttering round the Aegean Sea (Or if you want the proper way of saying Aegean Sea - 'Αιγαίο Πέλαγος' (aye-guy-oh pel-ah-gos))

my brushes are poised Milton, might break me out of 3DS Max....

Working on final items before mapping.

That's a great angle on that shot Milton. And showing some very nice modeling details.
