  • Do you think they will offer different paint schemes? I do like the grey color that I have seen in the videos and pictures, but if they offered bold contrasting colors, that would set this monster apart from the rest in the foamy world of the warbird.

    • That second shot is sick. I am definitely painting mine that very livery.

            • Good news with the Arctic Aggressor livery, you don't even need airbrush as the camo is all clean hard edges. But an airbrush is a must for the weathering value alone. :)

                Good point! In fact converting the base gray with darker gray and black should be relatively easy to do. Can't wait!
