New Estes Pro Series II - Sahara

[noffie79]

Here's my Sahara, fresh off the painting line. Haven't flown it yet. Supposed to be windy the next few days here, but hopefully by the end of this week she'll have her maiden.

Cool looking paint job. What did you use for the burnt orange-ish color? Looks like some metallic flake in there?

Thanks! That's Testors One Coat Lacquer, Fiery Orange. Those little cans are expensive, but damn they're worth it.

Cool, thanks for the intel. Yeah, if it's the cans I'm thinking of they are dang expensive but it pays off for sure.

Very nice. Reminds me of my LOC Expediter, one of my favorites!
