Grummani IA-2 Iaculum

Librarian · February 12, 2014, 02:37:15 AM

Part of the Catholic Coalition AF...no idea what I'm talking about but seems nicely right wing for once. IA-2 stands for Impetu Custodes which I hope translates to Attack Watchman

. Iaculum I think means Javelin. Four fixed 12.7mm miniguns, two fixed 40mm Bofors type cannon. One remotely aimed 12.7mm minigun and one flexible 12.7mm minigun on the starboard side. An ECM pod on the port wing just 'cos I like the way they look. Gave her the name Patience 'cos that what she is, AWRIGHT

.

I'll get round to matting her when the gloss has cured properly.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Love it. Good job.

Lot of whoop-donkey on that one Book Man!

...should have said "cos that's what she's got". Noticed that an aerial had broken off, and couldn't resist giving her some Hawg teeth:

Also forgot to mention the fixed 12.7mm gatling in the nose. One mean lady.

Terrific

Are you sure it's got enough guns?

This looks awesome! I love the fangs. Gives me ideas for a P-61 a buddy gave me.

Librarian · February 12, 2014, 10:24:16 AM

Ages ago I picked up a 1/48 Revell A-10 from Modelzone in a half price sale. The fangs came from that kit. I've been raiding that kit ever since, lots of useful bits and pieces...£7.50 well spent

The P-61 is Revelogram too. I would love to get some scimitar props like the C-130J or the latest Hawkeye. Too expensive to buy a kit just for the props.
I'll have to look into the miniguns for future reference.

I was thinking that myself. When that lot go off, the whole plane is going to move sideways! Nice build

Wow.....she turned out perfect ! Love all the guns, especially the nose gun !

You're lucky the 'I' is well away from the 'B' on a keyboard, you wouldn't want to message anyone and ask if they want to look at your baculum!

OOOPs...starting to wonder if Iaculum has another meaning

Excellent: i suspect the pilot has much stronger muscles in one leg than the other though.....
