Boy, you better not let any of the biggy bosses you work for see that your mind is slippin'!

You'll get your ticket pulled faster than a cat can lick his ass!



Rob.

SLippion? No, it's way past that. It's on the floor and out the door! Then again, I heard cats can lick their arses pretty damn quick

I meant Eagle 1

Ducks! Sorry!!

Cool! Stripes made it during storage mighty fine, Thank you very much.

I do need to mention something here though that's kinda got me wonderin'......

Mine don't look NOTHIN' like the one Talen just posted? Is that something to do with the accessory kit some of y'all have mentioned or somethin'?

??????

Hell, I may have to back outta this build here with y'all. I don't think I can modify mine enough to look like the one Talen posted. Nowhere NEAR that good am I, I'm afraid.

Rob.

But you said your decals survived, right? If you use those lil Vipers for the wheel centers- you'll wow em all big time! And whereas most folks will go with that single subwoofer in the center arm rest/bolster area, you might just double down and dirty! Then paint up the disc calipers red like Brembos and it'll POP! It's gonna be the details that count son- don't pack it in so quick!

"Pimp my Viper-beyotch!"

Who you callin a sorry ass duck?

Why you muthafucka! Next time you and I are in the same flight path I'm gonna bodycheck a hapless pigeon into one of your intakes! Suck that you peckerwood!















Them pigeons are so stoooopid!

Well done on the initial work Talen!

I guess I should post some of my Viper WIP photos.

For those of you who may not be aware,I'm trying to create
my version of the "first" Viper to see combat in the Cylon War.

The Viper you see in TOS-G is a first major upgrade to the air
frame (MK 1).

Shortened the nose,shortened the intakes,heightened the tail,
the wings will be longer and more triangular,all exposed "plumbing"
will be covered,all the greeblies on the surface will be sanded down,
and new exhausts and weapons will be added.

I'm trying to "back date" the Viper kit into a more primitive,earlier
version of the Viper.Not the best photos (taken with a cel phone),
but here she is so far with everything loosely in place......

[dbhs]

Looking good. This will be an interesting version to see go together. Covering up the plumbing on the sides will have a big effect on the overall appearance.

[79 daytona]

Great start U-boater! I don't think i've seen anybody do that version before.

[79 daytona]

OYeah here's a pic of the one iam going to try and do.

[U-boater]

Hey guys,here's a thought....

How 'bout a little back story to go with our builds?

[thunderbearr]

I figured I'd jump on the bandwagon. I already have one but picked up another one at the store. First step, sawing off all those hoses!

WOOHOO!!

Welcome to the (whatever the Hell our squadron name is )....

Welcome aboard!

Gettin' rid of the "plumbing" is gonna be a serious pain!

[777]

Was there a date or event planned for this? Just so I know where I stand...

[robn1]

No dates or deadlines, just work at your own pace.

[Lord Darth Beavis]

Question: I want to scribe in all my panel lines. Should I scribe them before I put the bird together, or after?

Can't wait to start slapping plastic together!

[dbhs]

It will be easier to do before assembly. I'm going to do that too.

[Peagis]

Ive got the MMI pilot done just gotta start work on the viper itself.. I'm thinking silver stripes with black borders on it
