Taidans pic would make a great dio, mount a 1/48 Foxhound on a rod entered into it's side, then use some N gauge scenery to replicate the scene below.  Gorgeous pic!
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

And with a 1/72 or 1/144th B-1B or B-2A in the background about to be intercepted...

Been looking at Floggers a bunch recently for some future projects  :wacko: the variety of machines and paint schemes is incredible:



























Love those Foxhounds Thanks GTX! :thumbsup: Interesting seeing folks in NBC gear.

Cheers mate, :thumbsup:
Those flogger pics are excellent by the way, I wish a 2 seater was available in 1/72nd scale, as it is on my must have Russian plane list.
Cheers,

I agree, the two-seater looks pretty beefy, though looking at the two it doesn't look like there's much change to the spine really - looks like the seat's just a straight back extension - the canopy layout reminds me of a Foxhound though, wonder what merit might be in that thought.

If I could get hold of a 2 seat MiG 23/27 it would be turned into a Soviet SEAD type, as I think that this plane would be an excellent platform for that role

Just randomly thinking, the Foxhound's canopy looks about similar to the Flogger Twin Seat... I wonder if it wouldn't be possible to make a redesign of the pit, based off something like a Phantom, and then fit the twin hole canopy on one of the models... Just blend it right into the standard spine and pit glass, and go from there.
