A horrible model, but I'm giving it absolution because it was first molded in 1965...
First, I wanted to make it 'real' but if was nearly impossible. So, with Modelmaker decals and Quickboost pilot I made it whiff.

VERY impressive, specially when it's that small!  :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! :)

That's impressive considering how crap the model is but the work is great..the rigging impresses me a ton mate 👍 😀
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 veery good build. I must try to find a kit to check its crappiness...
Owing to the current financial difficulties, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.

Very good, is there a back story. The kit has been superceded by the later Airfix and Eduard/Smer offerings but it remains good kit bash material. The real world Fokker D1 to DIV for example and the only limit here is your imagination.

That looks really good - well worth the effort with an ancient kit! :thumbsup:
