I mixed up a sort of red/gold color for the final trim color. I think, anyway. About half taped.

I know what you mean, Randy.  Sometimes I think about half taped myself.

It's been on hold while a bunch of other stuff got done. I hope to get back to it soon.

Sorry guys.

And, it's still sitting there. It got pushed to the side so I could get something ready for VSC. Tough to tell if that will happen either.

Just volunteer to judge Classic and see 1/3 of the flights each day.  I think you get a free banquet ticket for the work.  I know I did the year I helped in Old Time.

 C'mon Randy, time to get going, spring will be coming sooner or later.

 I've actually made some progress on the current project over the past couple weeks...creeping up on shooting some color soon.

 I wonder what Mark's been working on?

I'm still out for now. Hope to get back to planes eventually.

May is working on a cool project. I've followed along with interest.

Randy knows,, but I have sworn him to secrecy,,

ok well not really,, but I am building,, and this one will get finished a lot faster than the 109,, well, that is after I finish gutting my workbench,, and reorganizing, and having the grandkids for the week, and,, hmm there was something else

 Cool, how about a new post on your latest Mark?

I will wayne,, but right now in the middle of a work station overhaul,, and having the grandkids for a week,, so priorities have dictated I do other things,,
I have a few picts, and I may generate a post today or tomorrow,,

Mark is busy while I continue to just work, come home and sleep. Another month and hopefully, I can get back to doing something.

Sheesh!

 Checking in.

Say it ain't so Randy! 

Hey Wayne.

Well, I decided to put the thing on the back burner and retrofit an old plane for electrical operation. I just don't like the way it's coming out. I'm going to sand it down to substrate and go with a different idea.

 Been there. It's really hard to stay motivated on a build that you're not satisfied with. I've got one of those going myself, the "P-40" project. For some reason I get less excited every time I work on it. I've got a whole bunch of time and work into it though...

 What "oldie" are you blowing the dust off of? Maybe a new post about it is in order?

My original Slider. It's a light and really good flying plane. Needs some work and I've started that. Then I will retrofit it for electric.

ahh, the SLider should be  a solid candidate for transformation,,

woo hooo,, get r done Randy,,

WAyne,

I was going to just strip the thing, but I figure out an alternative that should work. Lots of taping ahead.

I really need to get some new tape. Shot some more color tonight but what a pain. Will need to touch up a couple of places tomorrow then it's on to the next part. More pictures this weekend.

But it looks cool, though.

May have to do a bit more on the nose, but here it is with all the colors on the fuse. Wings still to go.

Well, Mike, it will be different. I did a couple of things on this plane that may backfire massively, but it should work.

I get home about 2:30pm and I'll try to get the rest of the red on and fix a couple of things. Then I need to get some clear on it then I can can start thinking about lettering stuff and inking. At least it shouldn't be a pig.

Randy,  Randy,  Randy.

Just time consuming.

another unique color scheme on an even more unique airframe

I love it Randy,,

 Lookin' great!

Well, I got a bit done on the bottom, but I'm not going to get to work on it for a couple of days.

Sigh....

I hate stopping when I'm on a roll.

John,

It will be done by then, for sure. I hope to get out to Auburn this weekend with the retrofitted electrical plane.
