One of our guys over on the Model Warships Board submitted this one.  Very unique and very detailed.  Look closely to find all of the ship fittings!

Now that's what I call port security!!  ;)  I saw the anchors, very clever.  Does it have a red light on the left side and green on the right?

Yes, the front and rear lights are green/red.

I suppose it's amphibious too?

Or does it just roll along the bottom and shoot up through the water at any drug runners it encounters?  ;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! :)

Reminds me of that Navy Abrams from a few years back (with the sidewinder and tailhook).  Love this!   :wub: :wub: :wub:

In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.

Inventive and amusing.  ;D  :thumbsup:

Actually, this reminded me of a project in my stack. I was looking at a kit and had forgotten why I bought it, and now I remember!
Even better!
