Default Do you like this new canopy? I call it Eddy Evil

I started making this canopy from a block of SikaBlock PUR M450 about 8 months ago and now I am wondering does anyone like it?
I would really appreciate feedback.

It looks like a cross between an Angry Bird and a Piranha Fish. All it needs now is two red glowing LED Eyes . That would be something I would put on Mine !!.

Added some black stretched blades and a carbon landing gear and then the airtime landing gear. Cut the second eye out to test view from both angles. The professional pictures will be taken in a couple of weeks after they all arrive. I forget to say how strong little Eddy Evil is. I haven't been able to break it yet.

With the right paint job, this could look very cool...

When you get to the point of offering them for sale, let me know. With a cool paint job and red glowing eyes I would put that on mine and fly the crap out of it.

How would you add the red glowing eyes? Sounds really interesting. Today I was informed that the shipment is "sent". Maybe I should have waited until I had them in the hand and made better photos. Too late now, to change that, but they all come in the standard cut, which leaves everything open to how you finally cut them. I would be happy to see your painting jobs. I myself find it hard to design the paint job. It's been a long discussion with the manufacturer to come up with designs. I chose at the end, standard colours, as a base to work on. Hay, you know what, I have learnt so much in this project that it makes fun. Why not have a go?

Hi, had a look at your canopy and I like it too. Are those all the colours that you have or do you have more?

Micro red low volt LED'S, wired with micro size wire to a watch battery. Could mount it in the canopy where there is room or under the main battery with a 2 pin slip connector.

What would be really cool is adding a funky tail fin and landing gear garnish to make the whole organic fish head thing work. A flying fish! Put some fish fins on the edge of the canopy and a big fin that surrounds the whole tail rotor! That would be freakin awesome

Voted YES but need full flying fish makeover

There are 5 colours, 4 solid colours and one multi colour with design.
White
Gold
Metallic Red
Grey/Black
Silver/Blue/White/Red

I will have a go at making the led eyes.
I'll have to leave it up to you to design that fish tail. Would love to see a photo when finished.
