LOL - I did that for the Shorter Aeroplanes comedy thread. Anyone contemplating copying it in plastic should bear in mind that it was surprisingly hard to do in pixels, since there really arn't that many parallel sections on the 'vark....

the F-111 just isn't pretty to me (BLASPHEMY!!) so I am not worried if it looks 'odd'  :thumbsup:

I don't think its blasphemy - in fact, no-one could call the F-111 'pretty'.  It's a brute - the name 'Pig' suits it well.

Shameless plug!!

Remember:


  • It's the last year of F-111 operations - this makes a nice tribute;
  • I am already volunteering to be moderator - honestly, it's a positive thing;
  • I already have a very rare, nifty prize sorted out;
  • There's a number of relatively new F-111 kits available;
  • There's quite a few conversions/accessories available as well;
  • There's plenty of ideas available here and here amongst others; and
  • I am willing to use the Carlo Kopp mailing list threat if you don't vote for me (trust me, I have ways of finding out...)!

Just in case I haven't said so already, I'm def interested in this one . . . got quite a few Vark/Pig ideas to build, most based on the B but a couple of Aussies from a regional war with an extremist Indonesia ;)

The threat won't work on me.  I've been a friend of Carlo's for over 15 years.  I know his email address and he knows me.   :mellow: :mellow:

Well comrades,

We're off and away - see here!  If you have look too, we've got a few twists in the rules this time.
