Cool Dougs RV-6 (but a lot cooler!)

We all know that Doug asked YEARS ago for some teeth on his RV. I don't see any teeth yet Doug! lol.

If Doug would quit spending his days flying his RV (I mean 'working') this is what it might look like!









Just teasing Doug...but seriously...let's get some mean teeth on that thing okay??

That is too cool !

I see something like "follow the posting rules or I'll bite your head off" painted on the side of the plane to go along with it.

Que 'Bad to the Bone' music....

I actually think it looks great Doug!

I expect Danny to have it painted next time you get to the airport....

Grady asked about those teeth not two days ago at the blue hangar cafe. He has an airbrush guy in mind.

I think it may kill off the whole look you were looking for when you first painted it... imo

I do like the look, don't get me wrong... Just may kill off the whole theme.

Default I have to agree...

.....that the teeth represent a shark, not an Eagle.

Default No claws

Doug, If I may add my humble artist's two cents worth... Forget about the claws.

My plane was hangared with an RV6 for a while, the guy had a military type paint scheme with the sharks teeth (no pictures) it looked pretty good.
