Oh yeah, now that's cool ! I might have to do something like that. Wasn't there a Liberator with a similar nose ?

Maybe use the same RP installation of the Liberator, on little wings attached to the nose of the fuselage !  only have them two to a launch rail  B)

Here's some bits which would look cool on it:

Libs with rockets. Images from Squadron's " B-24 Liberator in Action # 1080 "






If you used stubbier winglets, you could use a double-tier rocket set-up, like this.

Now that I see what you're going for Toad, I'm totally stoked!!! What a killer concept! I always knew that old Stirling found a good home but with each update I am even more convinced.

Now that was worth seeing!   The lines of a Stirling would fit all that higamagog splendidly!

Wow.....nice work, guys ! Thanks for the info !

Not to sure about the front airfoil section, but I'll mock one up and have a look at it. Also, that first resin set sure would be useful......

Cheers !

You guys that don't enjoy the puttying aspect of modelling should try my method......GPSR. Get Pissed, Sand, Repeat !

Anyway, here's my new nose.





Anybody recognize the bulge ?

She's going into the 'shop' for another coat after the second intermission.....
