The Stratojet Merlin was but the first of Eugene Heyart's designs I would download. It was love at first flight. But I never really cared
for the liveries provided. I was looking at the USAF Warbird version and decided I would modify it by changing the yellow to blue.
One thing led to another and I ended up adjusting the alpha channel. I only wish my system would provide better shots, as these
don't quite do it justice. Hope you like.

Thanks for looking.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Thanks EJ. I like it even better than the Magician.

Looks like a 40's Navy or Marine machine.

As much as you like the Merlin, I'm surprised you haven't already downloaded DXTBmp and gone Merlin Mad"! Wink

Hey Patchz! I got an e-mail this morning. Someone DL'd the triple texture I uploaded, and suggested I repaint a Merlin to look like an old Navy aircraft!

I replied that someone already had....
