bringing the cub back to life.

[savage40]

I had a bad habit of parking my cub on top of my air compressor since my hobby room is pretty well used up. So one day as I was gettting ready to spray paint a motorcycle tank I forgot to remove the faithful ol' cub,,, she melted! Well this past saturday night I gave her a new lease on life and new colors! I think it turned out rather well. The material is called"difractional lens pattern" it is rather cool when viewed in real life. I was pondering creating a graphics set for the cub to add to my Helicopter graphics kits...

most any sign shop should have some.. providing the sell computer cut vinyl lettering. If not I could sell you some . I took photos of my cub and loaded them into my computer and tweaked my flame design I sell to fit my cub..cuz I'm a bit lazy these days. I cut some stars and presto!!! custom cub!! I hand cut the black for the windows.. here is my heli stuff www.amainhobbies.com/index.php?manufacturers_id=231

Is there a coating on the wings, or is it strips of packing tape?
