Is the escort a parasite? It looks like it's come unhooked from a trapeze under the starboard wing.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Spotted that as well Kit. The whole concept is gorgeous
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Thanks for posting these and the links. He has an interesting gallery. One thing that he does - that I try to also and aspire to do in art is not actually develop a singular style but experiment with as many as possible. Mediums, colors , patterns and use of layout and type vary so widely and he makes it all work so well.

This is a spectacular topic thread, it really speaks 'whiff..

I remember seeing that one parked at Canberra airport for many years.  I don't think it ever flew though, with the Dart engine.  Looks like he's used F-86 style tanks with it.

that David Rose RP-4 looks like a modern version of the DG-1 racer which had 2 turbo Mazda RX-7 rotaries.
