[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

I was reading a blog about concept art for movies. Speeder bikes came up with pictures taken from the correct topic and a source given, as you have already linked. Don't know anything about that but would it be possible for a third party to send an "update" to the bloggers to redirect traffic to its own? For some reason? This other Whatif is odd... Would there be more like it?

Some clown pinched one of our old site urls and redirected to that load of rubbish.  :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Every time I come across it in one of my old threads I re-direct it properly.

While I'm on a Swift kick, I found these rather nice, and thought provoking, schemes. The author, Tony Wilkins, has some very interesting stuff on his site, but it's not been updated for some years sadly. The site's here :- https://wilkybarkid.wordpress.com/





Both the above are the abandoned PR6 version. And the FAA one is flown by FRADU, so doesn't need folding wings or a hook.






Both Fireflash armed F7s, obviously.

I had the idea of a Swedish Swift a while ago, as a contemporary recce alternative to the S 34 Hunter which I will build for the upcoming GB. I eventually dropped that idea in favor of just a single foreign type in Swedish service, though.

Singapore could also be an option?

That's nice. Just the airbrushed beach looks a bit odd and artificial (to me).

Lots better than I could do! That's nice work all around.
