I'm in & resisting the urge to do anything fancy. This will be an in service Pogo, the 1/72 Mistercraft (ex- Kopro) kit.
I've got a book that shows some weapons & fuel pods that it may have carried, if I'm feeling adventurous I may scratch something up.

Real life's getting in the way a bit. Sofa shopping Saturday and a trip to the seaside today has cut into modelling time. Coupled with a cockpit that proved fiddly despite the Spartan detail, I'm behind from where I'd hoped to be.
Cockpit together, in a fashion. It actually doesn't look too bad when all together.

Attack of the flying mini pegs. I thought these might come in handy, I've forgotten where I found them, probably Hobbycraft. They're meant for clipping photos to things and surprisingly strong. Fuselage halves together and tailpipe on.

Hmmm, idea for another time maybe...

Yeah, that's a nice kit, a bit basic, but it goes together well.
Yep, the major parts have gone together okay, although there's a fair step to fill on one side of the tailpipe.
Would that be a Pogoland Gnat ?
:-X
A favorite aircraft of mine. Built one in operational colors and markings, decided they'd have 50mm guns or 20mm cannon in the wingtips, as they were for fleet air defense against long-range bombers. Perhaps drop tanks to extend range, maybe rockets to increase lethality.
Unfortunately I'm going nowhere quickly with this. Combination of work and a personal situation. I'm going to try and do a bit this evening.
