Build your own. Use the toothpicks with the shaped tops (the playing card
picks are usefull and easily obtainable). My favorite configuration is a
"heart" on bottom and slightly in front of a "spade". When painting them I
use a "Not-Skull Squadron" paint job (The heart as the nose and wings,
the spade as the fuselage, cockpit, and tail wings). With a good paint job
including some black or dark blue you can disrupt the lines on the playing
card shapes so that on a table you can't really tell what they are made of
(my "not-Skull Squadron"
paint job breaks up the lines so well that it's hard to tell what they are
even close up.
