The whiffs you find on pieces of paper at safety meetings ! I spotted this scribbled on a sign in sheet at a job we did for a local frac plant.



I had to add to it  :thumbsup:



Tracked down the guy who drew it and asked " Is this supposed to be a Harrier ? " He replied " I dunno, is that the plane from True Lies ?" Close !

:cheers:

Picked up a copy of Air International June 2014 vol.86 No.6.
On page 51 picture 6. Description is an artist impression of the A-60M laser-gun. Can't help think that the ILyushin IL-76MD-90A Candid has been fitted with the radome from the BAe Nimrod AEW3.

I have bought the (French) book "Le premier vol d'Oscar" by the delicious cartoonist Jean Barbaud, and I love (most of all) this Vampire shy girl...:

so cute indeed : Hasegawa should do it as an Egg Plane!
They did the P38, they could start a whole series of twin-boom egg-planes ...

Yup make a great Egg Plane
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I think it is supposed to be a cartoon SIPA 200

Yeah, but a SIPA 2000 is a cartoon Vampire.  ;D :lol:
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! :)

Yes, I guess you're right (I will ask the cartoonist Jean Barbaud on Facebook, I hope he will answer).
While... there was also a Vampire character it seems, a "boy" not a "girl"...:

Master Jean has answered: yes, the orange boy is a Vampire and the pink girl is a Minijet!

If you have a good magnifying glass then in the current issue of Model Art Australia you can just make out Comrade Harps' whiffed DUKW in one of the pics from the Melbourne Model Expo.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.
