Default RE: 3D Hot Hots Build

Ok, I Started work on the covering. I started with the wing because I thought it would easiest. The bottom of the wing will have a neon red checker board pattern. The neon red is a very close match to the Hot Hots stickers that came with the kit. The top will get some sort of trim in white and red, but I haven't fully decided on what. The fuse will be done like the wing, white on bottom and purple on top. Very similar to Gray beards Navy hots. In one of the photos, I think you can see my Idea for the canopy and flames drawn on. I am going to tape tracing paper on the fuse and trace a pattern for the flames.



It's not perfect, but I'm quit happy with the attempt. I've heard of using a soldering iron to cut out the servo openings and may give that a try.
