What do I do with my Slowpoke?
OK, I have 90% of my Slowpoke color scheme figured out, but what do I do w/ the tale? Should I put anything on the elevator? On the rudder? I think it looks empty on the back end but I don’t know what to do. Any one have any ideas?

maybe...
I was originally thinking about something like that, but I'm not sure how to go about it. I was going to put a third strip on the wing and have it continue to the elevator, but I decided agents it.

checkers ha?
I'm going to really consider the checkers idea. I don't know if I like that on the elevator, but I may on the rudder. Still, I 'm still looking for ideas!

Do checkers,it will look great! I have the small one ,had great fun with it on a Satio 30. It's now converted to a AstroFlight 15 with a gear drive. Swings a 12/8 prop. Way cool!!

Ok, what do you think.
the only problem w/ this is, is that my whole rudder is white. I would have to take that off or put monokote over monokote. what do you guys think?

I really like the looks of the rudder in that computer generated picture that you posted. The only thing that I think you should do to it is to add something to the elevator and horizontal stabilizer to make it look a little better.

option 2
this one works better for me, but again it's going to suck to cut out the checkers. But I don't think I'm it would be worth it. And yes, the pic is from G2. Should I do anything w/ the elevator? I know Emissions said I should put stripes like the wing, but I don't know. I'm going to play w/ in in G2. What about checkers on the elevator?

you could just leave it white if ya want and put some decals on the back, which if done right can look nice. Or you could just iron on a bunch of stripes that run from the L.E. of the stabilizer to the T.E. of the elevator. And some more thin stripes running from the LE of the vertical fin to the TE of the rudder.

That "G-2" is pretty cool!!!!! A friend has one that I can have but my computer doesn't have a fancy enough GAME CARD to run it.
I like the checkers on the rudder only, try doing the same thing to the horizontal and elevator..
Somewhere around here I have a web site for doing checkers,, I'll try to find it and pass it on to you.
try this and see if it works.. http://winshiprc.tripod.com/how_to_apply_checkers.htm

You know what would be best? If you sent me your version of G2. I could really work some color schemes out for your that way. Email me and I'll give you my home address.
