Hahaha 😆 😂 wise words my friend 🤣
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

It will if I EVER finish the PSR, I think I'm on session 7 or 8 now.  :banghead:  :banghead:
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! :)

What colour Kit?

Please say your Thunder will be Blue...
 ;)

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Actually no, but it's a good idea for a later model, so long as someone does a resin C model wing conversion. I REALLY don't want to do all that extending bit again!

I THINK the PSR is done, just a check primer coat needed now.

And also available with FLAPS!  ;D

And now with COLOUR!  ;D

I've got the first colour coats on the underside, but that's as far as I can go till I get home as I don't have the upper colours with me.

Ah yes, perhaps I forgot to mention that it'll have a different scheme on each side, as it's an 80th Anniversary aircraft for two of the squadrons operating it, that is 617 Sqdn. and 809 NAS.

617 were operating Lancasters in 1943 and 809 NAS were flying Seafire IICs and the Thunder will be painted in schemes to match those aircraft, the Lanc scheme on the port side and the Seafire scheme on the starboard, with a squadron appropriate fin marking on each side too.  ;)

I thought it was an aircraft from 1940.
... I know all this and more ...

OK I could've guessed until the cows come home and I wouldn't have even been close   ;D
This is really gonna be quite interesting now  :thumbsup:

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Would you had as many problems if you had bought the F-35C and added parts from the
F-35B?

Probably, but they'd have been a different sort of problems. Plus 1/72 F-35C kits are as rare as hen's teeth, there are only two I think, and they're VERY expensive. :(
