With my glider done, here is the start of an A-1 skyraider from the oranleed pack. Making it a lot more detailed.

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking for my signature, I can tell you I don't have one. But what I do have are a very particular lack of skills, skills I have imagined having over a very long career. Skills that make me are completely useless in any situation. If you stop reading now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you. But if you don't stop reading, I will look for you, I will probably not find you, and I will kill your refrigerator.

I'm really looking forward to this one. No matter what you do, you can't have too many Skyraiders.

Looking good! You'll have to make a tutorial to show us how you do those expert panel lines.

So I am remodelling my old Learjet 45, but now a lot higher quality. Quick update.

The Lear Jet is now complete and will released soon.
I am starting a new scratch-build pack. A pack dedicated to only aerobatic planes. It will include things like this Sbach, some different Cap variants, Yak-54, Yak 52, and a load more others.

Thanks Dan. Heres another update from the work done today. This is the thunderbolt theme.
Do you think they should have moving or not? I know that these may be used at airshows so people want nice quality, but they might be laggy. What do you all think?

For something as small as that, it more than likely won't be laggy with moving parts. It can't have more than 10,000 vertices. the 727 has more than 24,000 and that is probably pushing it for an airshow.

Nice Job Alpha! The paint is spot on and the detail to the plane itself is pretty nice. I just hope your no using the dat a lot of Extra 300s use in YS: fly at a top Speed of 150 knots and when pulling up stop to 50. Everything else Looks pretty epic, so I would like to definetly see this at an airshow or fly a solo of one

That is beautiful! Yes, moving things shouldn't be a problem and will especially be good for an aerobatic plane. The dats might be a bit of a challenge but you could very well use the Extra dat to bounce off of since it's closer than anything really. Then you could just change a few figures.

Another update. Its a bit different because I lost the first one by not saving it often enough. SO after about 5 attempts to get the nose decal right, I got it!

An airplane?
Looks good! Are you making this from scratch, or did you start with a base model?

All the planes in the pack will be scratch built. BTW for some who dont know what it it, its a Hughes H-1 built by Howard Hughes, the same designer as the spruce goose.
