    Last custom of my Jet Corp: Dark Jet aka Predator Skydive

    Used the wrong color! Tamiya TS-11 Maroon turned out to be authenticate maroon and not the more purple color I'd hoped to get during testing...but what's sprayed on is sprayed on.

    The Jet mode intends to resemble a YF-21 Sturmvogel fighter with a ghost drone.

    I think the maroon works, looks fantastic. I especially love the use of Black Shadow's/Thunderwing's cockpit and drone

    This whole set looks amazing! Do they have a combined mode? It's just that they are made out of the combiner jets so I thought they might be able to combine
