F-15 Delta ... or ... something.

[John Howling Mouse]

I was sitting there, staring at this model, and a nasty little thought entered my head.

Buy another F-15, build the fuselage, and then lop it clean in two down the middle and attach the two halves either side of the current fuselage for a ... four engined job 

I like the three engined job, but I can't work out how to knock up a convincing third engine, and the thought of butchering two 15's into one (F-30?  ) seems like a blast  B)  Pretty sure it's been done on here somewhere before, though.

Edit - Ooooo .... four engines, canards, and a twin tail! That'd be a beast of a 'plane 

Like this monster conversion by Eddie M?

Oh my goodness...!!!!  
what the grey bird behind the 4-engine monster ?

It's a UCAV.  Look here and here for more.

Yeah, something not dissimilar to that uber Tomcat. Although now I feel like I have to attempt something else!

Maybe, but Eddie would likely be the first guy to encourage you to create your own particular version of the concept, anyhow!

I, for one, would most certainly like to see your version of a 4 engine monster. I bet a 4 banger Eagle would be bitchin'! SimonR did a 4lanker that was 10x better than mine creation and I bet yours will be just as good. Start cuttin'!!!

this is my current F-15 project using an academy F-15/B

I hope to have some progress pics soon
P.S. only the overhead view has been Whiffed

Things are proceeding slowly on this. Trying to come up with a different engine layout while I work on the cockpits  

Edit: I like the canards on that Eagle, btw  B)  

[The Cat a.k.a Meowbag]

Well, Mr Slowest-modeller-on-the-planet is back.

I'm almost nearly finished the cockpits for this, and as I did my first bit of scratchbuilding (if you can call it that) I thought I'd share.

Those overhead ejection handles (dunno what they're technically called, but you don't really see 'em anymore), well, I always thought they looked cool as, so I added some to my F-15 made out of fuse wire  ^_^

The photo's a bit cack coz my mate can't find the charger for her Nikon, but here you go anyway. This means I'm very close to getting the fuselage together which means i can nearly start choppin' plastic!

Nice use of the coin for scale effect
