Gone, Gone, Gone

I bought an A10 Thunderbolt at lunch today. Im gonna paint it in a desert camo scheme, which will be a series of tan, light brown, and dark brown. One of the things that I think will really make it stand out will be the insignia/detailing at the front. Id love to do something like this:

or this:

If Im really brave, and instead of the 'mouth', maybe the mascot:

Finally, I like these colors for the camo scheme. (I dont like SOMETHING about this picture, but I cant place my finger on it)

Another camo scheme

Damn, I like these too. Decisions, decisons

Bugh LA Lakers

I hate Kobe Bryant. He is a putz. Most Valuable Putz. Great game Kobe. Way to walk off the court before the game is over and then talk about wetting your bed.

Celebrity Hot Tub

My wife and I play a game called Celebrity Hot Tub. We try to get everyone we know to play - its a great conversation piece! Here are the rules: First, it has to be a celebrity - no one you really know. Second, it can be anyone from any 'era' (like Marilyn Monroe from the 'skirt in the air' picture). Third, it can be for any reason - singer, conversation, or the most important - sex appeal. (ie, I have a girl friend who has Charles Gibson in there because he would have good conversation. I used to have Kelly Clarkson in there because she could sing). Finally, the last, and most important rule is that NO ONE can make fun of your hot tub!

Here is my current hot tub, in order:

Alessandra Ambrosio

Megan Fox

Kate Beckinsale

Jessica Alba (dangerously close to being removed due to spitting out a kid - supposedly, Alessandra is preggers too, but she is gonna be HARD to remove!)

Carrie Underwood (she is number 5, which is always close to being removed. Attractive, decent singer - yeah, she'll do)


WHO IS IN YOUR HOT TUB?!?!?!?

My first model project

Im going to start working on a MiG 29 model from Academy Models. Here is the paint scheme Im gonna go for:

You have landed at The Raptor's Nest!

Welcome to The Raptor's Nest! Its my first blog, and I intend to put whatever I feel like up here - mainly video games, comics, modeling, and whatever else grabs me. Im also a huge fan of the University of South Carolina and the Miami Dolphins, so Im sure there will be some stuff about them too.
