Default ME AND MY BIG MOUTH, Cessna T-50

I said I am going to redraw the RCM Cessna T-50 and I am. For the last few days I have been measuring and figuring the model. I wanted to tell you something that is a great help for silhouettes. If you buy a high quality plastic model kit such as Hasagawa, Tamyia and other brands. You can scan a picture of the parts into your CAD and get the correct radiuses and shapes and correct scale. I have been using a micrometer for the last few days checking the Czech plastic Model kit and looking at pictures online to check if it looked correct, it does. The model is 1/48 scale, all I have to do is upscale it to 1/12. The RCM is roughly 1/12 scale with several things that aren't correct. So I am going to fix that. So with my big mouth I have gotten myself into a lot of work LOL.

I also wanted to say thanks to you guys here for your help.
