Not sure what I am going to do with this...other than a lot of filling and sanding

Its in the right place then

how about putting some long thin wings on it and making it into a spy plane.

take of the wings, invert the fuse, and turn it into a small agile sub?

Delta wing?

Spats??

How about cut the wings off n mount the further back....cut along the end so the tail planes fit.....crank them down and fashion a T tail.....et voila.....prototype/advanced Angel interceptor......

PSR is at the heart of What-If.

Maybe go with something such as this high wing proposal from Northrop:

I think you are wrong: the models you see in GTX post aren't made by any of us. They are Northrop's.

Just a quick update "arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh" end of update!

I have decided not to any modifications and build it out of the box. Anyway put the nose on and it was about 2mm 'proud' all the way round

...sanded that to fit, and then thought I will give it a undercoat...and of course my rattle can was empty...

Oh hum the joys of modeling.
