Well, I THINK we have come to a decision. It came down to either this: Attachment: 2A-17.jpg or Attachment: 5-9.jpg And we chose the latter. I just didn't feel that that particular scheme would translate well to the actual airplane. Seeing it flat is much different than seeing it on the real thing. The blue variations are beautiful as well but we feel the orange will be different. There are a lot of blue variants out there on the Evo already and only one orange one (and the orange bird is much more stunning!) The color will shift nicely with the contour of the plane as well. I'll keep you all posted as we progress.

I just snapped these photos of my '75 corvette that I'm working on. It is the exact same paint color that will be going on the airplane. Attachment: DSC00593.jpg Attachment: DSC00594.jpg Attachment: DSC00595.jpg Attachment: DSC00596.jpg Attachment: DSC00598.jpg Attachment: DSC00599.jpg
