Popular Post munzieb Posted December 22, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 (edited) Watching Bush 41's funeral inspired me to design and cut his Grumman Avenger TBM. Lots of very fine lines and rather than trying to recreate the prop blades, I had to make a ellipse sweep of the blade arc. The canopy was tough with all the intersecting frames. I did have to deviate from my original pattern in some areas to create more bridges. Lots of blue tape to hold it all together. 1/8" BBPW on 1/4" backer. Shellac/lacquer finish. Time to put the airplanes in the hangar for a while.

smitty0312 Posted December 22, 2018 Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 Love it! Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted December 22, 2018 Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 That looks great and lots of very find scrolling. Awesome job. I think before you close the Hanger doors you should do a Stearman. What most to war bird pilots trained in. I have a pattern for one that Heppnerguy (Dick) made for me. I'm going to cut it and send it to the guy that took me for a hop in his this past summer. stoney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amazingkevin Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 I'd need laser guided hands to get arrow straight cuts like you did here. Mighty fine scrolling!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
