more SP "what if's"...
Author: Fizzboy7

I think the black widow scheme would have worked very well on later SP units. Subtle, classy, and industrial all in one. Thoughts?

Models courtesy of CT97.

Oh darn it Fizzboy7,

I keep telling you to get rid of that
Toy Store Wallpaper backdrop and paint yourself
up one with some real California scenery! - LOL!!

Blackwidow T-2s?

Why not.
That paint scheme would look good on just about any road unit.

(To my S.P. eyes the only thing I would have added is the Red frame strip)

Hey, I think it looks awesome with the speed lettering.

And I bet they would look a lot cleaner with black widow paint.!

As I remember those old black widows could get ragged looking too.

Definitely needs a red stripe!

Always liked the Black Widow, but also thought it could use a little dressing up. The colors don't quite come out right on this print: should be an orange band on the top.
