Wow, Ron. Wish you were producing these babies on the mass market for the rest of us to build.

Best reply ever

I too wish I could build models for a living

..its a lonely life, and surrounded by cats.

Ron, you know I love all of your work, but this one is my new favorite! I really love the shape!

Really looking forward to seeing this one all dressed up.

Baz, you'd just buy it to splice into something else again!!!

I agree, I especially like the shapes on this one.

Thanks guys

This is one of those that just came together cause the shapes looked cool together.

I haven't been posting on this one for a few days because it was all just the same ole PSR. But I have been working on her and she finally got to the point where I could add the LERX and start working on the loadout.

Both the top and the bottom are kind o plain. I will of course carve landing gear doors into the bottom .I will either carve or inlet the spinal airbrake from the F-15 into the top between the "shoulders"
The loadout

I like the changes on the missiles, especially the AIM-54!

Went from "cool" to "sinister" just like that.

I don't know how you expect that aircraft to survive in a hostile combat environment being so seriously under-armed as that...

Seriously, Ron this one has wicked written all over it! I'm just bowled over by your creativity!

Not sure who said it first but it still applies: "Paint hides a multitude of sins." In this case it also makes it look that much more purposeful.

Hey thanks a lot all y'all

I really like the way this one has turned out also. I am back on the road for the next few days but I did bring her and a few tools so I could carve doors and such on her.
