Default RE: Four Star 60 Kitbash Thoughts

The sad thing is I did a super detailed weathered paint job, panel lines, and even all painted on emblems,invasion stripes(THE WORKS) and I am not sure I ever took a picture of it !

I used a very light cloth and an epoxy resin..Clark systems? I can't recall the name..very good stuff though. I honestly don't even like to think about it..it flew so well, and it got flown so little ! Why I made the stupid mistake of letting it fall to the floor i will never know.
I think I posted a picture of the wing on another 4 star thread somewhere around here. I DID take a picture of the wing...after the fuse was gone...

I have always thought I might kit bash another 4 star sometime, I even tried to get a bunch of guys online to all kit bash a bunch of them together as a fun build..but it never seemed to work out...

I might have to build that fuse again though, and a bit wider I like the small gas engines now.

If a guy found the right cowl and canopy, then made the four star fit them ..he could make many sorta scale planes out of it...
