What they all said ! I can't believe how good it looks......I was a little skeptical at first, kinda looks 'ho hum' to me......but now I'm eating those thoughts ! Looks real to me.....and I can also see a few mods taking it all the way to the Korean War. Swept canards, larger vertical tails, bigger guns....

Great job !

:tornado: :wub: :cheers:

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

Excellent. A well done kit bash with a first rate finish.

I also had my doubts at first - should have had more faith! Great idea, build and finish. :thumbsup:

Lovely job. Reminds me of a comic I read in the seventies, "Trigan Empire"  :ph34r:. Might have a go myself.

That was a great read. Started me off gluing all sorts of bits and pieces together  :thumbsup:.

It reminds me of a single engined F7U with canards
That being said, I'd like to remind everybody in a manner reminiscent of the SNL bit on Julian Assange, that no matter how I die: It was murder (even if there was a suicide note or a video of me peacefully dying in my sleep); should I be framed for a criminal offense or disappear, you know to blame.
