Call 3W and ask for the "Joe Hunt" scheme and you'll get that plane. There's is also a blue/green and a yellow/red version.

I'll say.

And to add to the sentiment:


We were shooting a tv commercial today at one of the restaurants we are getting ready to launch. The cast was ordered as per specs. My gawd the actress that was sent out from the agency was unbeleivable. I was almost convinced by the women in my life that those only exist in airbrushed ads. I know better now. This girl's fit and finish were breath taking. I mean she looked like she was made out of plastic she was so perfect.......

Um, o well, back to reality. Igotta go!

Heather is a looker for sure. I got to see all the pics that did not make the cut and they are outstanding.
On the Votec, 3W sells them in a couple different ways. The comp version is the kevlar and CF fuse with light wings. For the $ it costs, I would go with the standard build. Those oz. saved are very expensive. I ordered my Votec in the competition edition and it was $6300 painted with the wood grain and Texas scheme. The scheme you are looking for is much cheaper. Just remember that when you ding one, it is nearly impossible to replicate. I would consider getting a plain white one and get the airbrushing done here as well. By they way, if you get one, do not use the spinner they come with. They will explode and trash the plane in the process.

i like the dod scheme but wanted to pick different colors, ( from what joe had done, a pearl blue and green) and yes it was 5400.00 , i'm not sure if that includes shipping and customs either. the pics of mine and the picks of the ones joe owned don't do the paint scheme justice. there are pearls and subtle fades ect that the pics just don't show well....yeah it's probably a 10-12,000.00 piece of artwork your hovering when all finished. it was the most expensive plane i have owned.
