Some of you might've read my post where I had some pics of my Trex after I Sharpie'd the canopy.. Well, I did mention that I might give it another go.. =]

I've always wanted my Trex in Red//White//Black, so here it is!

Anyway, turns out the Trex looks absolutely awesome in those colors, maybe it's just my personal taste. Red//Black always goes together though if you ask me. So here are some pics!

Also included is a picture of my first canopy/stabilizer fin Sharpie job so you guys can compare.. Which do you think looks better? I'd like to know.. Also, and suggestions for designs and/or color schemes would be appreciated, I'm pretty much fresh out of ideas for now. Coloring... Never gets old =]

What, no color on the tail rotor blades?

Sweet. That's all done with a sharpie? How did you get no brush strokes?

Thx Duane =]

Herleman -- Not yet. Gonna swap out the blacks for some colored white blades once the black ones get chipped.. =]

Opus -- There are brush strokes on it, but you can't see them unless you're looking at it up close. If you go slow with it, or use long strokes all at the same angle -- the brush strokes are harder to see.

That is a nice job. I've got to reduce my crash time before I can think about a nice canopy.
