Found on Lonestar's HOMEPAGE:













and my favourite:

F-15SMT  :wub:



The humpback looks very fitting on the Eagle.

Cheers,
Moritz

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Most of those are pretty darn subtle, you have to look hard to figure them out, specially the Voodoo.

Being a Brit the 'Flat Lightning' is my fave of course, I'm even now trying to figure out how to do it in plastic. An F6 and a Tonka GR1 perhaps?
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! :)

I like the Grippen Shark (TigGrippen?) thingy....Whatever you call it... :thumbsup:

Looks eminently doable.

I'm kinda partial to the Scooter with Harrier wings.

OK...for those of us still in the dark as to all the differences in the photos can someone please explain?  :huh: :huh:

Pic1, the Lightning, the real aircraft has two engine mounted one on top of the other not side-by-side as in the pic.

Pic2, Is a Northrop F-20 Tigershark fuselage with SAAB Gripen wings in a canard configuration

Pic3, Is a F-101 Voodoo which as a T-tail unlike the pic which has F-4 Phantom tailplanes

Pic4, Is a A-4 Skyhawk fitted with AV-8B Harrier wings

Pic5, The F-20 was never built as a two seater so the front fuselage is from a F-5/T-38.

Pic6, The Mig-29 doesn't have two single cockpit canopies as in the picture

Pic7, The F-15 Eagle picture has the forward fuselage section between the intakes lifted up to make it look like its got a hump which it doesn't have in real life.

Hope this helps
All the best
