Dan Hayward Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 This was built from the Eastern Express boxing of the ex-Toko kit and is pretty much out of the box with the addition of some cockpit details, tail struts and the rigging of course. The biggest change I made was to scan the kit decal sheet, alter the colors of the hexes and then laser print it onto white decal paper. Thankfully the decals then turned out to be super easy to apply, especially the fuselage which is just two full-length decals. I wasn't thrilled with the colour density though, so I ended up overpainting the hexes with acrylic craft paint.Rigging is done with .005" Nitinol wire.Thanks for looking!-Dan 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
