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 .

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

I know it's in a book I have around here somewhere....

A cracking looking model there.  :thumbsup:

The 107 looked mean even in the NMF test schemes, but in SEA camo it REALLY looks the business.
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! :)

- 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.

Thanks, all :) This is one of those models I wanted to do for a number of years, and I'm glad it came out as well as I had it in mind.

Thanks. I like it a lot more than the bare aluminium with red of the prototypes.

I don't think I had heard of it before I came across it on Wikipedia some years ago, either. I immediately liked the odd shape with the air intake above the fuselage, and then it turned out Trumpeter has a kit of it ... Well, actually it's a kit by someone else that Trumpeter seems to have purchased the moulds of, but still :)
