First I assumed 11.5 m long which in 1/72 means almost 16 cm, a so scaled the 3v draw.

Cockpit area must be taken from a Sea Harrier. Fuselage is done with an incomplete Academy 1/100 Crusader and half of a fuel tank...

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

Good thing that you've beaten me to it. Now I can watch a very classy act of plastic surgery to make a Piraña and apply the knowledge to my own cardboard (Yum!!!) version. :bow: :bow: :bow: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

OK, I know I can't stop scratchbuilding. Someday, I will build something OOB....

Carlos, I am so jealous of your ability to cut and splice and make it come out looking like it's supposed to. This is a wicked looking little bugger  :wub:
