I just want to give it a cuddle, it's adorable. It's only an inch or so away from being an egg plane. :wub:

The my goal was to obtain an A-7 that looks like a eggplane but instead I got a sort of cross between an A-7 and a Skyhawk.

I could have add some enlargement to the center fuselage sides... but now it's too late.

Why do I think "Lippisch" when I look at it. Reminds  me of a bulldog puppy, all pugnacious but cute as well  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

The shark mouth is surprising on such an egg-born gentle turtle ;D
