SAS Dragonfly

[scoobydie]

Blades has just recieved his new chopper, after those Cobra nicked the plans for his other ride and he pranged the only one left, he had to find a replacement !
Cue this new beast. It even comes with a cockpit too!
Not sure about painting the nose yellow too, I do have a spare so tell us if it should be yellow or black?

[Kambei]

It does look good, but will you be adding some of that grey camo scheme? Definitely needs something to break up the black.

[The Kraken Wakes]

i think the engine cover should be black too with some camo and the yellow sas stripes somewhere, down the rear section maybe?

[scoobydie]

I was debating the grey cammo, it would fit in with the Whale/Attack boats too.
As for the stripes, they would match the other SAS vehicles of the older type, just need to weild the
craft knife and make some templates.
I was going to set up the T.A.C platform and put a scene together with the Whale and Attack Boats.
Unfortunately, the Dragonfly is a little too large for the Heli Pad

thats a great ( and IMVHO Better better than the original ) ride for Blades and a wondeful update

I say make the stripes first and then look at it first to see if the yellow nose cone might be too much

The stripes are so easy in photoshop, I just did the yellow as one, then two, then three, then four pixels deep.

They're up in the Words files here

I do like the yellow panels but they may be a bit much, now something that just occurred to me which I don't think has ever been done is a black SAS dagger on a yellow background. Would that work, do you think?

I'd also suggest adding a red Action Force logo on each side. It was those that really made my customs spring to life when I did them.

[scoobydie]

I like the idea of the black dagger, I`d have to keep the yellow panels on to try it though.
I do have a few spares for this lying in boxes, so in essence ,like the Rattler, it could have
interchangeble parts .
Just thought now too, I have a set of tiger force engine covers, they keep the yellow
and have black cammo stripes as a bonus!

[scoobydie]

Found the Tigerfly covers, seem to make a good match, breaks up the yellow a little



Blades has also had a makeover, took some legs and arms from Backstop and
repainted a few bits and he now has a chunkier presence to go with his new ride.

[Kambei]

Looks more like a chopper pilot with an elite team with the new parts. Good choice. I aasume you are going to paint them grey to fit in with the colour scheme?

[scoobydie]

Not sure on going all grey and black yet, I might lean towards yellow
sidepacks, to coincide with the chopper.
Mind you if were to be shot down, yellow wouldn`t do him any favours.
