Default Outside the box?



I like this pattern....

I am suggesting something completely different regarding a pattern. Black with white spots on the top and a white with black spots on the bottom. Mother natures camouflage.

I apologize if this offended you!

The jolly Roger looks cool, but it's done to death. (See it everywhere)

How about something that doesn't exist... like a Red Bull Theme?

I'll toss a vote in on that green and brown camo. Its somewhat realistic but you just don't see it done often.

Maybe the colors with sharp lines like digital camo.

I vote green and brown, that would look awesome! Maybe even put the sharks mouth up front somewhere like the old Phantoms did.

if you're interested in trying digital camo, check out the article I wrote recently on the topic. It's easier than you may first think.

Sysiek,

I wanted to get a Yellow F-22 but since they no longer make them I am wondering about the Jet Legend F-22. Have you ever flown a Yellow F-22 and how does it compare to the Jet legend?

What is your opinion on the flying characteristics of the Jet legend F-22?

I'm not sure the only experience I have is between skymaster and jet legend the skymaster was much faster and more like sport jet there was some problems with the lending gear have to much weight on the nose strut the main tires was way more back than cg .the jet legend is bigger about the same size as yellow and I think lighter to so that makes it feel sensitive to all surfaces and little jumpy doing landings but when learn all about it will be just as other good landing jet. But if you looking for the info about the yellow f-22 you should be contacting Kris Gunter he is a good source of information I think he was the most expensive flyer and builder of yellow f-22 I know I think he's screen name is gunrad just look up for yellow f22 build forum.

I have been keeping my eye for a good used 22 to do a movie scheme myself. Plus I have no current builds and I'm a bit bored lol

OK so the winner is the Vietnam era camo colors with digital accents. The belly will be ivory bisque or primer off white and the top and sides all the camo colors with digital pattern. Just picked up all the colors and waiting for the stencils. Will post painting progress.

I did some testing with the painting and I'm not so sure about this colors I might be changing the shades to have a wanted results. The jolly Rogers are still a possibility with some changes with digital camo.
