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 .

A little progress. Had to take the decals off the nose as they just wouldn't settle down properly. Waiting on replacements to arrive. Also on its wheels now. Going to be armed with 2 x Martel radar missiles and 4 x 1000lb bombs in the bomb bay.

Calling this done.

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

Looks SO plausible, specially with those Komorans under the wings. They are Kormorans, aren't they?
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! :)

Sweet.  :thumbsup:  Even though I am not certain about the silver underside. Inspired by Marineflieger F-104Gs, I assume? It would rather be "Silbergrau" RAL 7001, though, a cold grey tone similar to FS 36375, or RAL 7035 (Lichtgrau, an almost white grey that was used under the Seahawks and Tornados) and most probably not metallic. But that's a rather nitpicky comment...  :rolleyes:
However, it's a plausible build, IIRC the Bucc was on the Marineflieger's wish list, but they had to accept the Starfighter...

- 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.
