Orange Arrow

From Apollo and Soyuz, to Gerry Anderson, Irwin Allen, Star Wars and Trek to Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica and those strange, doe-eyed Japanese school girls...to any model kits you can think of, that only exists in imagination.

Nice and bright!

Any reason behind this?

I just thought you had painted it with Xtracolor Red Arrows Red which is too orangey for my taste.

Anyhow nice build of the diminutive jet, and remember "small ones are more juicy!" ;-)

An inappropriate liaison between a Red Arrow and a Yellow Jack may hap?
I wish, that I knew what was doing!

'Just to see what it would look like' is one of the best reasons there is.
