Two beauties!  :wub: Actually two renditions of the same idea: a F-5 fuselage, mated with Saab Draken wings. But the results coul not be more different...  :blink:





Lovely work, the area-ruled fuselage looks wonderful and I feel an itch to pull out the saw...


But then, there's THIS gorgeous thing  :wub: - a spaceship!










What's even more impressive: it's based on an original artwork, from Stewart Cowley's "Spacecraft 2000 to 2100 AD". There is only one illustration in the book:




I'm in awe!  :bow:  :blink:  :party:

There are more Draken wings on models that AREN'T Drakens than there are on models of Drakens!   ;D :lol:

Super work on both of those for sure.  :thumbsup:

Wowee, a Spitquito, or, as the back half is backwards, a Spitotiuq?  ;D :lol:
