- 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.

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

Now that is awesome... but you're not just allowed to jump out of the bushes with this kind of project all done! I wanna see WIP pics!

This kit also comes with a tiny little Flapter, right? Any chance you could measure it for me? Since I know the dimensions for the 1/20 scale kit and this non-scale kit, a measurement will give me a pretty good idea of what it would look like in 1/72 scale, ;)
Thanks!

I'm very bad at taking WIP pictures. Also, some projects stay on my bench for two years, so that would make very drawn-out posts....

What's a flaptor? Is that the tiny scooter thing? There were a few of them in the kit. I hope I can find them. They are somewhere in the spares container.

The kit also came with a large (1/24 ?) lady pirate figure. If there is anyone interested in that, just give a shout and I'll mail it to you.

Ha! The way you show the photos almost is as casual as your introduction. "Something different for a change" - and slowly something utterly weird appears, is passing by, and leaves us baffled and amazed..
Great uh.. airship! Wonderfully done.
Actually, I would love to see the skies full of contraptions like this.

"What's a Flaptor?!" You obviously haven't been following my GB entry...  :o

Anyway, it should look something like this.

OOOhhh! Pick  me! Pick me! There's a strong possibility that I'll pick up this kit as well, but it's always good to have a backup since I've never painted a figure before and it seems a bit daunting.  Also, conveniently, you already have my mailing address... ;)  I'll PM you and we can work out some payment details.
Thanks!

Well, I think that qualifies as a shout.....  ;D ;D
Consider it yours.

I will put it in the mail next weekend.
