Hi Guys,

I'm desperately trying to get an O-2 done as a Christmas present. Why do we say we'll do these things?

Grubby.

Well Grubby I feel you pain. I am in the same situation you are with my SBD I'm doing. Looks like its going to be a little late.

Looks good so far by the way,,,

[BLOWHARD]

Hey Grubby, you'll be done in no time by the looks of it

[Jesters-Ink]

Cuz the money is great and . . . .no wait, that can't be it.
Like BH says, you look like you got it on track, good luck all the same.

I get one of these flying over my house all the time during the fire season, must have a fire spotting contract with the authorities. Is this a local airframe, Grubby? maybe its one in the same.

[GrubbyFingers]

Hey, GFR. What colour is it? There's a red and yellow shark spotter that buzzes up and down the coast all summer long (VH-SBZ). It's based at Essendon with a similarly coloured Partenavia. Might it be that one? These things seem to be approaching the end of their service life. There are two or three derelict at Moorabbin. I know Temora have an actual O-2 that they fly around (VH-0II), and I think there is at least one other O-2 flying in Australia.

Bit more done now. Time for beddybies.

very nice sobject Grubby I like so much your shading effect and the finest detail on this O-2

[Jarink]

Nice O-2! I remember when the Illinois Air Guard flew these from Peoria, right across the river from me. (now they fly Herky Birds)

Grubby, not sure about the colours, but it seems to be predominantly white/gray in colour(dunno about other markings) but you have to realize that even though its a lot lower then usual, im still only using a MK1 eyeball for identification, and may be mistaken. Having said that the 0-2 dose emanate quite a distinctive sound.

Oh yeah, nice profile in the works!

Looks very good. I'd suggest you try to improve the shape definition (mostly in the nose area) as it looks a tad flat. It looks very good already, but you can make it even better.

I'll keep my eye on this one.
