Hi Chad,
I'm a big fan of the show and the whole FT crew.
Has anyone suggested that you could cut your speed build kit planes from foamboard pre-printed with the plane graphics?
I talked to J.B. at NEAT, and while we were looking at Dusty he said he got the vinyl graphics from a friend with a sign company. The finish on the vinyl looked great and it got me thinking about doing a Microaces type treatment as an option.
Then I thought that a full vinyl overlay might end up being too heavy and cost too much to produce. (and annoy Microaces)
So why not just print right on the foamboard? It wouldn't be nice and shiny like the vinyl, but it would add less weight and maybe there is a printing method that could seal the paper like minwax.
