should i round the back of the fin off or not?

No, sharpen up the front so it's more like an F3-F6. What did you use to extend the belly tank? That looks pretty darn good.

it is an f6 i rounded it off  :lol:
i used a drop tank from spares box they come in really usefull for this sort of thing

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

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! :)

A pair of them taking off together leaves a "FIDO"  like set of runway markings for the next one to land!
