Some creative input from fellow modeler Franclab from Flickr.com... the choice is yours, my personal fave is the pathfinder version with the glass nose, but the one with radials ain't bad either!  :thumbsup:

Agree re the radial engine one. The RAAF is nice as well.

I'll leave the turreted nightfighter to Kit  :rolleyes:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Some great ideas there. The Defiant and Japanese Whirlwinds look so right, the former I'm very tempted to tackle.

They all look good, really like the colourful French one :thumbsup:.

I wish I was unaware of the reason for the tailplane location, the one with a turret really could do with a twin fin tail.

Gee thanks..........

I think that counts as 'The Cleft Stick', doesn't it?

The Finnish one looks good.
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! :)

I like the Whirlracer and the Defialwind but where do the wheels live on the Whirlischmit 262?

- 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.
