Thanks guys, really glad you like it,

Kit, though it's 1/144th it's still about the length of a 1/48th F-4, surprisingly large for the scale, a tad longer than an XB-70...

Chris...I'll only stop when I can no longer lift a scalpel or open a cardboard box...(which might well be next Thursday the way I'm feeling at the moment!

!)..

Cheers all,

Andy..

Strewth, even in 1/144 that's a LOT of shelf space!

Another great build General.

Of course a really talented modeller would have done the Mistel version

As ever, Andy, a masterclass in 'not taking the easy option'. Superb modelling, just superb

Ian well I agree, but I'm saving it up for this version....

There was a mistel' version involving an M-50C and Tsybin RSR (NM-1).......................hmmmm

Thanks Bearmatt, more on its way...

Another beautiful piece of work General. Another type that would DEFINITELY benefit from the 1/72 scale Trumpeter treatment!! Lol!! Dream on ! I have been working on my own bomber project for some time now - the B-52J. It's almost complete. I'll be posting pictures very soon.

Absolutely gorgeous work General!

The Russians often seemed as if they were determined to redefine the term 'exotic' and raise it to new levels.
