I havent posted anything in quite awhile but seeing this Astro Hog thread is great!!! I built mine a few months back and what a sweet flier!!! I love my Hog!! I went with half the dihedral and a trycycle landing gear for grins. It is powered by a great running Saito 80. I used all Monokote in Red metallic and cream color. For the black on the nose I used 000 steel wool on black monokote for the flat black look. I opted to carve my own turtle deck out of Balsa as I could not find paint to match the Red metalic Monokote.I put "Bender" from Futurama as a pilot so the Duck is history now.
