Quote from: kerick on March 06, 2023, 09:28:13 AMThis looks darn good. I like the missile rails. Only because I'm OC I would suggest doing something with the missile fins to make them look a little less like Sparrows. Just a thought.

I'm considering that, but basing it on the drawing posted by Jcf that shows a wingtip missile that is absolutely just a big Sparrow.  We'll see.  I don't disagree and they may change slightly. 
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

Falcons, Phoenix and Maverick all look about the same. Sparrows and HARM are similar. Now the Russian stuff is just weird.

Very little progress on this one for a while but a quiet night at home tonight saw both wingtip missile rails added.  Some PSR still to do but once this is done it should progress quickly.  Hopefully.

This going to be a brute when she's done mate  :thumbsup:
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 .

It's a Clunk, it already STARTED as a brute.  ;D
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! :)

Starting to take on that "50s USAF" look. Some touching up to do to the red but getting there.  The missiles will get more color too.  Thinking black radomes and some classic 50s fluorescent orange fins.  We'll see...

But anyhoo, here she is so far, the Avro F-91 carrying a pair of Raytheon GAR-7 Pandora nuclear AAMs.

So I got that going for me...which is nice....
