Woah....that's one good looking model ! Not sure I like the look of it.....but kinda. The level of work more than makes up for that. Love how much the setailed landing gear adds to it.

Nice concept, questionable execution.

Same here. Looks great, but leaves conceptually some questions...  :rolleyes:
Beyond the exhauts arrangement, couple with the wooden airframe, I also wonder where the engines get their air from? To me, some kind of decent air intake is missing, too?  :unsure:

It's a Whiff so I figure all that Physics and Aerodynamic stuff can just be put in the "Irrelevant" file while I enjoy looking at a fine build.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

That is just shouting Italian to me ;D it just needs to loose the single fin and make those secondary fins bigger
and stick them on the ends of the tailplanes, although.... maybe leave them where they are and just increase the size?
it would look like the distant cousin of a Savoia Marchetti SM.82 Canguro (I did say distant :rolleyes:)
just add one of those wonderful Italian camouflage schemes....

The British have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved". Soon though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross". Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the Blitz in 1940 when tea supplies ran out for three weeks

Ooops....forgot the Super Power !

:thumbsup:

That Wellington is pretty neat. Sure does look Italian but it's also pretty cool !
