Here's the engine that I promised you guys awhile back. The concept has been in my head for some time, long before Bernie made the blue stunt tank. Back in the early conception, I had bounced ideas off of both Bernie and Matt, I thank you both for putting up with my madness Smile The result is an engine made from parts that I had bought both of them.

I would still like to put some stars on the tank, but haven't gotten to it yet.

Clean. I like how you grouped the colors. I also like how the fins were sanded to make stripes.

It started life as an un-numbered Xtreme with a blue stunt tank Smile

Thanks!

I don't think I can get all 50 on there... maybe just a ring of them next to the back plate.

Or maybe just (2) big stars, one on each side of the tank.... still kicking a couple ideas around.
