Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Really like how you retained the F-80 nose, looks great!   Well done.

Thanks a lot! I think it turned out really well. The swepts wings make it look different, and the tail gives it an F-86ish look. Bu then there's the tubby fuselage and the round nose - but altogether the F-80E looks very balanced and natural. And the NMF suits it well, too.

Without any doubt Dizzy this one is 100 percent pure EPIC!!!!
Every single thing you did worked perfectly with the next...this isn't a plausible build..this is a shouldve been built.
I'm pretty sure the sweept wings would have turned the F-80 into a pretty good figther..definitely better than it was that's for sure.
Yeah top marks Thomas ..absolutely love this one  :wub:  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Isn't that just an OOB build?

 :unsure:

Great bit of integration Dizz.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

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! :)
