A Seaplane Carrier in the desert is just awesome.  But I don't think I would have brought along the sharks :blink:

Utterly, gloriously, barking mad....the racing tanks just cry out to be built :thumbsup:

Didn't someone do one of those for the Mushroom some years back?

It was at a very early Telford as I recall, just after we moved there. The model was in Lotus colours, BRG with a yellow stripe and a 155 mm cannon mounted offset to the driver. I think it was meant to be a tracked Lotus 40  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

We had a "Racing Tanks" Group Build a few years ago  ;D
