As pilots, we sought the freedom to defy gravity itself. I want to see what other freedoms await us in the future of this world.>>

[D132 15:03:45]: Fenrir and BLACK RAVEN lost from radar.


Parts check. BLACK RAVEN has 42 parts, Fenrir's aircraft has 53, and the two terrain pieces, two clear stands, and baseplate round out the 100.

The stars of the show.


My general plan was to design BLACK RAVEN to look better from above and Fenrir to look better from below, so the opening shot showed them at their best. See if you can guess what the designs are based on.
