The N-1 always did remind me of a stingray or a skate, or some other sea critter..

Thanks! I was thinking of upping the alpha to make it look a little more "slimy". Tongue

Nice paint!

Stingrays aren't slimy - they are quite rough Wink

(I recently was in an aquarium where you can stroke sharks and stingrays)

True. Like sharks, they have "scales" of a sort. I wouldn't be surprised if they used it for fine sand paper like shark sking, if they needed to.

I was thinking "Slimy", when I should have been thinking "wetter".

The whole thing makes me think of a frog.
It would be extremely easy to put a frog face on the nose and it already has the tail of a tadpole. Grin

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

Thanks! I may be able to up-load the "Stingeay", "U. S. Navy", and "Miller Lite Racing" this weekend. I still have some touch-ups to do on the "Miller Lite", and I'm also going to do a "Tiger Meet" that should be done by then, too.

nice, looks like a....SHINEY!!!!...MUST...wait...damn...get a grip....looks good where the download button? must get shiney! :p

Great job, I think it looks fine as is, though if you do adjust the alpha add a small bit more, and make it have a greenish reflection and that *SHOULD* get you that "slimey/wetter" look

I went swimming with little sharks and stingrays (all fed and friendly) and I patted them Cheesy
