the "comic book" Group Build

[Spey_Phantom]

this just came to me, the idea is basicly the same as the profiles GB, only diference is that instead of basing a model on a profile, the model should be based on something from a comic book.

such exsamples would be the TinTin, DC Blackhawks, blacke & mortimer comics,......

and not only aircraft can be eligable, but also armour and ships.
so what you think, below some examples.

Khemedi Mosquito



Bordurian Bf.109




other aircraft/vehicles include, the bordurian army tank (cant remember witch one, i think it was a T-34 or a Tiger)
the curtiss Seahawk (from the USS Los Angeles, tintin)

the Skyrocket from DC comics Blackhawks, are those gypsy Major engines?



and then there's all those other planes, tanks and ships from Blake and mortimer, Buck Danny, chevalier du ciel,....

Don't forget Michel Vaillant:

Here's one I finished a few years ago:



















It's Wonder Woman's invisible plane.

OK, new rule, wonderwomans invisible plane doesnt count 

[PanzerWulff]

With some of the transparent models out there why not?

Ooooh, I'd be in for this! I'd probably have a go at bashing one of the ships from Ministry of Space. Or maybe something from a Masamune Shirow book.

The Luft 46 guys should be on the bandwagon with the comic out about them.

And Rat, nice version of WW's plane but I thought it was a T-tail.

Heh, I have the Blue Rider Khemedi Mosquito decal set (as seen in the top pic)

It was, that conventional tail is what makes mine a whiffer.

I was going to suggest this as a separate GB thread, but it seems to fit better in here:

Holy Mufflers Batman! It's the Superhero vehicles GB!

There's been any number of Batplanes, Batcars, Batrollerskates over the years so the proposition is simple: design a vehicle for the superhero of your choice!

I know what I'm doing (already have the kit) - a Phantom F-100 (get those purple and grey paints out):

I knew I had seen a decal sheet or 2 for Tin Tin planes.  Are they still available.

I'm still trying to figure out how to model the 'Poh Poh Poh' sound effects onto that mosquito

BUMP

just found some covers, just to give you an idea or motivation 

[PanzerWulff]

If anyone can find it there's the X-men's SR-71 they got from S.H.I.E.L.D. and modified by Forge (I mean the comic version not the movie one)
