I like that  :thumbsup:  I bet it could do some damage in a ground support role as well  :rolleyes:

Well, I'm calling this one done.  I could do more - black washes, weathering, and so on, but I really don't feel like getting into all that, so I'm saying this is a one-off prototype with the usual teething problems and cost-overruns, so this was the only one made.  It now sits in the museum at the Aberdeen Proving Ground.


I don't like doing weathering, and indeed am useless at it, so always say my model represents an example sitting awaiting either a Royal/Presidential review or is sitting there for the base "Open Day".
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

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

That sure looks a mean machine.  :o :thumbsup:
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! :)

This was a Revell SnapTite kit, with glue reinforcing of the attachments and seams.  The tracks turn, and the whole thing is made of very hefty plastic - clearly more of a "toy" and less of a "kit".
