Now I feel I am making real progress with this one :rolleyes: Went and got some Evergreen stock yesterday so I would not have to use so much freakin putty ;D
But first she needed more visual interest on her nose :thumbsup: The way the Hase kit fits there are no gun barrels showing when you put the panels on :banghead:
I can fix that.  :wacko: Long barreled 30 mm cannon. Steel projectiles with copper driving bands for a lighter weight, higher explosive payload bullet also a heavier powder charge which can be efficiently burned in the longer barrel. :party:


Tigershark ,get it :thumbsup: :wacko:




Here is a very rough mock up. I cut the wings for a more radical sweep but I will definitely sweep them even more

I will also most likely use the engines from the Hasegawa kit instead of the Revell's  pictured as they will be easier to fill :blink:(I hope) :rolleyes:
I amuse me.

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Thanks Moritz :thumbsup: Did I mention that this one would use some putty :blink: ;D



Oh yeah the comment about the Hase engines being easier....I retract that :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
