I have one last set of graphics coming for it from Callie. The pilot 'LT George Baker'. Yes George, you get to be a Blue Angels pilot! I should've put a goatee on him before I glued the canopy down.

Looks awesome Steve. So do you just email a picture of what you want Callie to make and she makes it in the size you want? Can’t wait to see her maiden flight, which hopefully you’ll video!
I had to work with Callie on some of the graphics as far as size was concerned but she is very easy to work with. Some that weren't in the set I requested based on an image I found. For instance, I initially could tell the McDonnell Douglas logo was on the vertical fin and should have been part of the set but I could not find a clear enough picture that showed Skyhawk II as part of it. Eventually I did and requested she remake them at my expense. For the pilot name I just asked her to make it in the same font as the Blue Angels beside the intakes but 1/4" tall for upper case. They were perfect. Mine is far from perfect to my eye and as I researched it there were subtle changes in the graphics over time on the fullsize birds but its ok. Typically though yes, you just send her an image if possible and tell her how tall or wide to make them.
The Liberator is an awesome plane and while EDF's are really more my thing I cannot rule out the allure of a large multi-engine bomber either. I have some goals for what I want to build so it will largely depend on what MRC releases and how much that interrupts my plans. LOL Some planes I like to just kinda throw together and fly and some I like to take my time researching and make them special to me and I have some favorites that may not even be available, yet I hope.

I was just curious as I find your wok amazing. Regardless of the subject I always look forward to seeing your work. Learn something from every build.
