What's with the bat?
Thanks Ian.

I noticed Photobucket have the option to add pictures to the photos, I am guessing as it is coming onto Halloween there are a few "spooky" options, the bat fitted as I saw it as a Vampire bat. I couldn't resist really.

Looks nice, and thanks for the bat explanation. Don't think I would have got it.

Nicely done Saxon, another great finish to go with your B-57.

nicely finished, like the 'gate guard' look of the blacked out canopy.

Thanks LancFan, yep I have seen plenty of blacked out canopies on real aircraft usually serving as gate guards, do they do that for a reason?

My guess would be because the cockpits have been stripped out and there's nothing to see but a gaping hole or a bit of a mess and therefore the blacked out canopy looks neater.
