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

I LOVE the Carvectra as well.  :thumbsup:  :wub:
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! :)

Just a pity there isn't a pale blue in the palette here, so royal blue it has to be.

Observation is the most enduring of lifes pleasures

If anyone needs a color for their Tophe build I was quite happy with the "sky blue" shade of the Vallejo Model Air.  Direct through the airbrush, zero thinning or mixing.  Water based.   

Vallejo Model Air 71.317, AII SV. Gol Light Blue.

Is that a couple of Tophe's paint brushes poking out the cargo door?
A most excellent build!

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 .

In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.
