Thanks again, guys. I've hung her back up, and I have to reiterate.....she looks alot better with the tanks and extra weapons !

One seriously awsome build Toad..

Whoa, does that ever look sinister all dressed up with ordnance like that-----great modification.

I could never hang something this cool up on the ceiling-----how the heck do you play with the model that way?

I concur wholeheartedly, and I WISH I'd thought of that remark !

The indoor & outdoors shots show how much light can effect the colouration on models, I thought at first this second set of photos was of a different build!  Great stuff & nice loadout too.

I've been in on the Marinefleiger thing myself recentley, got to love German colour schemes!

Hahaha ! Good one ! To tell you the truth, that's the whole reason I wanted this aeroplane in the first place. After seeing the reports from the collision, I fell in love ! But, upon building the beast....I realized that she just wouldn't turn. With those little tiny wings...she had a great AOA, but other than that, she was just no fun to fly around.

Now, if I had myself a Marinefleiger Hornet !

Very nice.  Makes me wonder what a post-reunification frogfoot might look like in Luftwaffe colours - maybe in a sceme similar to the later Alpha Jet schemes (not that clued up on the name of the scheme or the colours - but basically the two greens and a grey scheme the QinetiQ AJs were in when they were delivered)?

Nice idea!

Sorry I missed this thread Todd - this is actually the 3rd or 4th time I've opened this thread and each time I've been kicked off by the family before I could view it!  Even now I'm fighting off the boy who want to go on the ceebeebies website!

Anyways, beauty concept - that whole German reunification is a goldmine of potential whiffs. Great looking scheme simple, but effective.

As for the choice of the next one (assuming you've not already started).  In honour of my Detroit Redwings, I say a Swedish import in American markings.  I'll leave you to fill in the gaps

Thanks nev ! I've got an idea allready...hopefully the kit is still sitting on the shelf at my LHS !
