Biplanizing is almost as much fun as floatplanizing ...

Here is a Flogger Mig, with movable wings, in double surface.





My models are painted monochrome, because I like to underline their shape, independently of historical context;
They are painted in a primary color (red, yellow, blue) because I like them ;-)

In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.

"BOING!" goes the eyeballs! :o That is so strange but so cool.

thanks for your appreciation! I take your astonishment as a positive compliment  :smiley:

This blue twin Flogger is 1/72 (from two Academy boxes; the second fuselage was used for another hybrid project ...)

I also tried a 1/144 variant :



also with two moveable wing sets



which can give quite -impressive configurations, in my humble opinion  ;)



enjoy!

Wow!!
I've got to try that out. There's a picture on YouTube showing a Russain next generation fighter with swing-wings. The swing-wings look as though they are joined together back to back to form one giant wing. One swings forward and the other is swept back in fighter/attack mode :banghead:

thanks all for your appreciation!

If the idea inspires you, please go ahead  :smiley:
Especially, my realization skills remain quite simple, it must be possible to refine things;
and then, inventing history and markings is another degree of liberty.
