I finally got some free time to work on my 46 inch Fly Guy…..    Roll Eyes

Here he is – dry fitting all the parts.

It may be a bit large for indoor Ben….   Apparently it is not a slow flyer.    I may bring it Friday night.

I can’t make up my mind whether to paint him up as Paul, complete with that wide grin, or as Al complete with wrinkles and that tattoo he has on his …..   Shocked

Fly Girl! NJ wouldn’t allow it!   She thinks I spend too much time in my shop as it is and with a Fly Girl.

The fly Guy is now finished.  It is foot heavy so I’ll have to add a little over three ounces as far forward on the head.  The RTF weight will be about 19 ounces without paint.

I’m reluctant to light up the head…. Some may think it is a halo.
 
I still have not decided whether he is going to be a Paul or an Al.  If it becomes Paul then I’ll have to put a really big leaf on the front.  If Al, it will take a lot of extra paint for all the wrinkles.  Maybe I should go with Spiderman.

If the weather is OK Friday evening, I’ll bring Al/Paul to the indoor Frank.    I think it will be a hoot to fly.

I would post a picture or two of him but he is unclothed and may be considered offensive.   Roll Eyes
