Joe,
I really like your Canary (and your previously posted Shrike)
Both are futuristic but seem "possible" and the Canary almost seems like it
could be official extension to the Alpha Team theme.
(the yellow/black color combo worked so well for me that I did a number of
theme extensions for Res-Q a while back)
I dunno what you could use for a more menacing name, most of the yellow
birds of North America a perching songbirds.
The Golden Eagle's scientific name is Aquila chrysaetos which doesn't lend
itself to well to an aircraft. The Secretary bird (Sagittarius serpentarius)
of Africa is a raptor that sometimes has a yellow head. (not yellow but cool
names: Goshawk, Kestrel...)
What did you use to make the QTVR files. They are an awesome way of
showcasing an MOC, I only wish you were able to post a file twice the image
size to see more detail (which I'm guessing would probably be 4x the file
size?)

Hi,

I just added some photos of a new plane and another aircraft at my spot on
Brickshelf:

The big addition is the Canary (not the best name, but I was lacking for a
better name for a yellow thing that flies) which is a rapid response recon
plane. Basically, it's a cockpit with big engines and a  middle that is too
small for passengers, but great for equipment! It also has landing gear which
fold (thanks to William Ward's suggestions in a previous note)

The Sprite is a little ship that sorta happened on its own...I left some pieces
too close together, and well, there you are!

And there is a QTVR file for the Canary and also the Delorean.

LMKWYT!

(...) Thanks for the compliment! (...) I'm very happy with the Canary, mainly because I was afraid the yellow would not work out as well as it did. And as for the Alpha Team extension, thanks! I like the premise of Alpha Team and have bought quite a (...) (23 years ago, 5-Mar-02, to lugnet.space)
