Glorious!!  I never seen anything quite like this. I was looking at it trying to figure out what the stuff was...... 

Beautiful work, it looks so natural!   


Of course...I immediately flew at warps peed to the internet to shop for a Lansen kit....     Not a whole lot around in my preferred scale (1/72)  :angry: and pricey the ones I do see!  ;D   But oh man, this is cool.. I'm going to enjoy hunting for one of these. Gotta have one now.

I'm inspired by this!  Great stuff all around, Tom.   :mellow: :mellow: :mellow:

So subtle. So simple yet so effectively done. Amazing how keeping a jet in a natural metal finish makes one forget the origins of the plane so easily. Just a Lansen in USAF clothings...
Very well done! It looks really pretty. I'd like to see it in a Dutch livery too. Now for that F-86 in Swedish outfit, I guess that is next? (-;

You might also want to dive thorugh SPINNERS' CG gallery; there were several nice Lansens-in-disguise, IIRC. I remember a Finnish one, a Danish, and an RAF aircraft - the latter also looked nice, desite the classic grey/green cammo scheme.

I will definitely be doing that! Thanks for the tip.  :mellow: :mellow: :mellow:

The Heller Lansen comes with a recce nose conversion included in the kit, and it's superbly done too.

But they didn't do the longer wings...................  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;) ;) ;) ;)
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! :)
