      I was hoping someone 3D printed the Airplane crew! Wished I had a printer to do this myself... Once I saw the AL37 reveal, that's exactly what I thought of 😁

          • Here is my AL37 coming along nicely. I did have some issues with the base coat peeling but it seems to be just an annoyance. I will clear coat the entire plane after to avoid any lifting later on.

            • Guys here`s 2 picts of my KC-37 done in 127th ARW Mich ANG livery. I`ll have some better ones as soon as I get it out of the basement. Working refueling boom and lighted cockpit are the only mods I have done to it so far, I`ll be 83 the 12th of March so I don`t work as fast as I used to. I haven`t flown it yet since the weather here in Gods country has been crappy.

                    V, Simply brilliant, Sir, though a bit 'deflating' for the original crew. Best, LB

                        • I have seen there will be many liveries on this AL-37. I check all the new ones every other day. All I have seen so far are just AWESOME. Doing a personal touch on mine. My son in law is doing the graphics for it. So far we have not had very good flying weather here in the Black Hills of South Dakota. I have been working with three students though. We go out for a few hours every chance we get, as long as the winds are below 20 and temps are above 30.

                          • Hardway, thank you. I'm looking forward to seeing this fly. I'll post more photos as it nears completion.

                              • Great stuff! Any chance you can design a GPS blister that’s seen on the top of most of the civilian Max’s? My 3D design skills aren’t up to that level.

                                  • I guess so if that’s the hump on the top of the fuselage ahead of the tail.

                                        • Looking through photos I took of the full size Canadian North aircraft, i saw an 'Ingestion Hazard' placard, so making water slide decals, I made that for my aircraft as well. And the flags behind the cockpit are also printed water slide decals.
