Wow! Wow!  :bow: Just... wow!  :bow:

Can't wait to see what Tophe will come up with.
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Here is the Bv P.195Z (thanks!):

Sorry to have removed the tail markings, they may be illegal in my country (I don't know The Law good enough)

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 a lot, Tophe! She looks good!  :bow:
Now, one good deed deserves another: I took the liberty of asymmetrizing™ you're twin-boom version (quickly, with MSPaint):



Hope you're not upset with me anymore  ;D

Maybe putting the prop in front of the wing leading edge and moving the wings further back would have been "better"?

I played with that arrangement, but you'd end up with an almost BV P.192, and I thought the aesthetics of my design are rather better ;)

I saw a profile of a Mitusbishi Zero with a solid nose, an X-tail and the prop behind the cockpit/trailing edge some time ago, maybe I'll tackle that... anyway, the problem of the respective landing gear (the profile did show any  :rolleyes:) made me stay away.
Yeah, the P.192 was an ugly thing, but it made a tricycle landing gear possible.
Anyway, yours is a great whid model - wonderful and creative job!  :bow:

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

Excellent piece of work! My only concern is that that prop would strike the ground on take-off.

Very cool. :thumbsup:
Some of my models can be found on my Flickr album >>>HERE<<<
