Great idea, nice build and finish. Now have a breather and a beer and then straight back to work on your next project..... Erm, what did you say it was going to be ????

Like it  :wub:  - presumably it was used to escort RAF Mirage IV bombers :lol:

Mirage IV bombers?!?!? They would be escorting TSR 2!

Good one Seavixen!  You've really captured the look of a fifties/sixties jet there.  I like the nose job too, gives it a prototype/pre-production look.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Awesome it screams "Supermarine" to me maybe what their jets may have developed into. Also has the look I'm hoping to do as well as that  one day by putting a Mirage wing on an F-11 Tiger. :wub:

I invite all and any criticism, except about Eric The Dog, it's not his fault he's stupid

King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Always thought that Delta-II / Mirage III hybrids could have gave British aerospace industry a world-beater in the class of the Mirage III...
Here's the "real world" British Mirage, the ER-103C proposal from 1956
(from Projects cancelled by Dereck Wood )
I really want to model this one now I have a good impression of it (I thought it was a basic Delta II with a different nose and firestreak on the wingtips  :dum: )
