AWESOME!

The Griffons work really well with the loooong nose of the Tigercat, and the build quality is excellent!  :thumbsup:
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! :)

Thanks mate  ;D
I do like the lines of this build ..to me it's one of those must be built models .
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 .

Ahem, very imperfect but this is a first try, maybe I will try a vector drawing, from above or slanting view, the subject seems so interesting... :unsure:  :-\  <_<

Fantastic build, Phill! The colours are the real icing on the cake!

I did think, however, that the torque from the anti-clockwise-rotating prop's of those two Griffons must be phenomenal! :o

That must have sounded awesome at full tilt.  :wub:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Guy that would be probably 100% true..I would have loved to fit 5 bladed counter-rotating props..that would have made this perfect  ;D

Mossie ..yip  ;D  ;D..would have sounded amazing 😄

If Rolls Royce could make opposite rotating Merlins, as they did for the DH Hornet, doing the same for a Griffon would have been a cinch.

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