I was doing a black and red one earlier. Based on a photo that went around in the Tailwind forum at Yahoo.

Its nearing completion. I still might change some things on it. The Diamond Tuck leather interior is still 'iffy' with me. I might make it black leather or perhaps red 'flat' leather. The original plane was red inside.

I did alot of modifying of the original, like the wings and stripes on the skirts.

Thanks Robert,


That one is a bit difficult to paint. I couldnt tell if the top of the back of the fuselage was black also. When I was painting it, I tried the black on top and it didnt look right (rear roof area). Also, the wings didnt look good all white, so I striped those as well with a version of what the side of the fuse had.

I stuck on some environment reflections as well, per the teachings of the master. :d
