I am assuming that this is an official entry so I hope you can get the flying sub in, and the painted spits are a great idea!I think I've already over-extended myself but I will put in;
If the LPL Flies and I haven't destroyed it, I will auction the LPL Flying Submarine. (I hope by that time I will have a Fully submersible working model) Does that count?
If not I will figure something out...
What do you think about a number of Chuck glider spitfires made and painted by scouts for this purpose? I will the glider entries there.
Kilroy07 - FT Mustang FFAS'18
Because I can't believe no-one has called the mustang yet! LOL
(I only hope I can finish her half as nice as the example!)
From a thread on the HP forums...(And if ANYONE has a clue as to how to get it to talk to a windows 10 machine, I'm all ears!)
I really think that a plane with a skin printed on it would sell really well at the auction at FFOH. If you can I would definitely make a bunch of them to sell, I can send a few bucks your way to cover some supplies if you can make some for the event. If you have the capacity to make a lot of them I could find a way to get more of the community involved with helping the funding of printed kits for the auction."True Plotter"... It's a HP Designjet 500ps (so if you are asking if it's a pen plotter, no...) I guess you "could" classify it as a wide format printer...

I am NOT looking forward to cutting and pasting all the sheets together like you did today! LOL
It won't be a single pass, but I'll build a template for printing the skins as a sheet then glue it to a full sheet of foamboard then set up a jig on the laser.
I'm also testing whether it makes sense to minwax before cutting (just haven't gotten the nerve to see just how flammable (inflamable??) MinWac treated foamboard really is...) LOL
Hopefully within a month I'll have this figured out and maybe (no promises) will have a couple skins to share too (with both of you.)
As always will keep you posted.
