Looks like I glued the floats together at some point in my career. That shouldn't be a show stopper tho. The 48th scale F-106 will be used to make it a turboprop. Might be US, British, Argie or Canadian lol
CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Vive les Canadiens !

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 .

I have a Hasegawa Marlin but I am tempted by the Academy Mariner every time I see one in an online hobby shop.

- 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.

Combat models do a vac-form one, the only game in town I'm afraid in 1/48.

It's a good kit, I'm doing a long term Whiff build of one here https://www.whatifmodellers.com/index.php?topic=53097.0
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! :)
