Went to the Euro Model Expo in Lingen, Germany today. Here are some what-if themed pictures and some other stuff I liked.

Whiffing is alive and well and living in Germany too.  :thumbsup:

A couple of those were at Telford last year, particularly the Lanc dropping its Upkeep bomb.
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! :)

Thanks, Tom! :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

Some excellent builds, there! The P-38Kombi, the F6F racer, the Upkeep dio & the dino-rider are my favourites. ;D

When I saw this, it reminded me of the weird scheme on the Vorlon ships from the Babylon 5 tv series.  :o
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

This reminds me of this NASA test aircraft.

Some amazing stuff there, thanks for sharing Tom  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I've been trying to build that for YEARS now, that one looks miles better than mine might ever do................  :banghead:

- 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.
