Got my three from the LHs today... :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:




Random thought: replace the wings with halves of a protractor, replace the tailplane with a square and the nose with a compass point, and call it an "Angle Interceptor"....





Okay, got my coat, gloves and transparent flying helmet and I'm gone.........

Ok, if it's an ANGEL Interceptor, does that mean they carry angels wings as kill markings??  What does it take to intercept an angel in the first place???

Faith, of course....... ;)


Got visions of the plane painted red and flown by a demon now, with angel kill sillouettes on the side..... maybe it could have a triple-forked nose..... :wacko:(literally...)

one will definitely be in a desert scheme, the other... who-can-say... possibly Vatican AF.

Obviously my oblique reference to a Vatican AF build earlier-on, was a wee bit too oblique... ahh well...

Obviously "pinpoint" accuracy- heads of pins are too big since angels use those as discos.....

If you lot want to commit to this I'll move the thread and set up the Theme Board ?

REMEMBER - There does not have to be a time limit for Themed Builds they can go on until they naturally run out of steam if you want

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I'd be happy to sign up to it, but it had better be open-ended given my current lamentable build rate......

How about a shiny bare-metal French machine from the 1960s?
