I've already started working on it.

I've been trying with it for a week now. I just haven't come up with something I like yet.
I'll see if I can get it done by tomorrow/

MS paint does have its limits though it's easy to use.
And I will share with any who want a copy NP. I got bored at work and am work nights this month and so I have several German Aces ready to build. I plan to do them all. The reall cool part that I like is the fact that a bird done this way can be repeated as many times and will always look as good as the 1st one did.

Yep

Ewo, That looks good, but your comment about it taking all day got me thinking. With the program I use "The Gimp" I can flip parts horizontal or vertical very easily, and can import PDF's to just about any format. So when we have an proven plane like the Bird Dog, and permission to give it color I can set up double sided templates in a matter of minutes. I can also scale plans very easily to any dimensions. However tiling plans and 3D shading is up to you guys. I haven't figured out either of those yet! Just let me know what you need.

Tow Man, That looks great!

Hi, Ewo.

I think he just meant that if you spent a lot of time (all day) on the computer wrestling with the changes to make the templates, he could do it faster. It wasn't clear that you were busy doing other things before you could get to the BD. I believe he just doesn't want you taking too much valuable building time doing something he might be able to do faster, so he offered to help. But I think you also know all the tricks as well.

Good work on the templates.

Barry

Ewo, From your post I got the impression that you spent a lot of time converting and setting up the files. I was just saying that in the future my services are available for this sort of thing. I am hoping that everybody works together on these prints, so we can put together a fleet of profile planes.

Debut of the Blu-Ercoupe

As promissed, here is what I have thus far on my Blu-Ercoupe. Please remember I've been busy working in that darn railing. It should be complete Monday except for the steps which should allow me to get somewhere on my plane.

Original 3-view follows my rendition.

TM, that is a beauty. I believe that will be my first warbird. I loved the P-40 since I got my first U-control which was a P-40.
