Longitudinal is long ways, stick and tissue models the cross sections would have notches for longitudinal framing.

This so great :cool: Your friend will love it! and then maybe... we could build it.

I'm no designer, but stick and tissue modeling tells me, get your cross sections, then your longitudinal, then support blocking, then skin.

Sounds like a @Revell-Fan question. :cool: I tried to design a paper box once... It didn't work so good. :(

The blackbird I liked most was the old 1/48th scale YF-12, I took that kit and backdated it to be the M-21 mothership, found a resin 1/48th D-21 drone, and mated it to the top. I love How big this one is, but to each his own. I couldn't find a place to display a 1/144th Blackbird where I...

I must agree, Great work and a beautiful cockpit sphere. :bowdown: This should be a nice diversion from your multi year builds. :rolllaughing:

Looks GREAT! The old Uhu02 kit is nice in it's own rite, and that's why @mijob chose it as a starting point. I'll be watching this one.

Luckily, I had my 2 Tb Seagate dive when my laptop crashed. Now I m just running an elcheapo deluxe Mini PC, Beelink M12 with an intel Alder Lake N100 processor, but 500 gb SSD and 16 gb of DDR5 ram. it runs Windows 11 home fine.

Most fun I ever had with my dad, he taught me to drive an M-113, then let me drive it all day thru the foot hills outside San Antonio TX. Hit a 3" diameter pine tree and just power over it. :cool: as a 14 year old it was the coolest thing.

My neuropathy has taken any skill I had at flying or even driving RC. I had an ExtraEZ 40, and raced 1/10th scale cars. Those were the days when I had more $ than sense.

Yeah, even NASA gets it wrong sometimes, The article even says that they flew 2 YF-12As and they only twin cockpit ever made called they "YF-12C" The "C" is at Hill Aerospace Museum in Utah...

Design looks great so far, and welcome to Zealot... Just a little correction, the twin cockpit Blackbird is the SR-71C, there is no SR-71B. Before the final Mach 3.3 run from London to New York, all the speed records not set by the YF-12, were set with the "C". Another fact about Blackbirds...

hey now, I resemble that remark... but honestly, I have so many plastic kits, and minis to build and paint.

Awesome work.

Update time. I'm online more, I start physical therapy next week, 1st post op visit, the doc said my shoulder looked excellent. I'm in and out of the sling , still limited motion. As long as I keep my arm close to my body I'm Ok. I'm driving again, I think my brother and my girlfriend both...

Geeze what have I missed? Great work on these.

Short update, 6 days post op, my right humeral head was shattered, it was 4 pieces, so the Dr did a Reverse Total Shoulder. I can move my elbow, wrist and fingers, but my upper arm and shoulder must stay motionless. I go in for post op follow up on the 10th of April. .

Just talked to orthopedic, and it is called a hi ball joint fracture. Shoulder replacement surgery next week.
