That IS looking good!

Is there any connection in that both you and the aircraft's designer are called Ed?  ;)
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! :)

Love it! Years ago I started a similar project but with a massive engine and Eurofighter wings...this looks so much better. Bravo Ed!

I was imagining more Viggen-ish delta canards. :blink:

Here's how it looked as of last night. Due to earlier issues, I don't have time for the original camo I had in mind, so I kept it simple and just painted it Gunship Gray. I'm putting the decals on now and hope to add the finishing details tomorrow afternoon.

Nice one Ed!  :thumbsup: :bow:

As soon as I saw the underside pic I thought 'Gripen', just goes to show how relatively small changes can make an aircraft look TOTALLY different.

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