That's a really great one. Love the plane and paint and am always a bit of a sucker for cloud shots. I have been known to spend an hour or so just photographing clouds. My wife thinks I'm a bit of a nut case when I ask her if she thinks that the clouds I just photographed could be like the ones on Mars (or whichever planet seems appropriate). These ones are definitely earth ones!

Good work.

I must see if I can find that paint...

My old Weather Bureau manual calls them towering cumulus - the second stage of their convective journey to becoming cumulonimbus and thunderstorms or, even worse, tornadoes.

Great pic, Dave ... now why doesn't my REX produce clouds like that? laugh.gif

I have a few issues with that model/repaint. The engines are wrong and the word/letter spacing on the text is way out. There are a few decent skins around for the Warbirds Dak - you may want to search NZFSIM for them. Still a beauty though!

Mother Nature did the clouds and talk to Manfred and Markus about the model and repaint.
