          A few more for today. I used the rails and missiles off the 80mm F-5. Almost the same scale, so why not? They attach with magnets right now, but if I want to fly with them, they will have to get screwed in and glued!!

                            Here is a little graphics work. Just the start. Painted the wheel wells white, Did the gear as well... The Kiwi on the wing is oriented correctly. My gut feel was to place the kiwi "hump" towards the LE of the wing.... Ah, NO!!!! LOL
