Another WhIf over on ARC

[Madoc]

Folks,

I just spied this one over on the ARC site:

Hawker Hunter in "US" colors

Tim Soetaert worked this one up from a Matchbox T.7 kit and did it up in the same livery as the Hunter used in a music video.  So that makes it sorta a what if, right?

Anyway, the bird looks mighty fine as he rendered it in a bare metal finish.  That's what I think all airplanes look best in.  Even those formerly dull green and brown ones you Brits seem to love so much!

That's the OFMC's Hunter, or used to be at least.

Folks,

And for those who wanna see what inspired this bit of Whiffery, here's the link to the video:

Fatboy Slim music video "Bird of Prey"

I love that video, but they cut out the stuff that creates a lot of the emotional impact: the nuclear test video, the little girl, the Eisenhower quote, etc.  It's nice to see a model of that particular airplane, though.
