remainings of the day :





and now I have Harrier wings remaining ...

A surfeit of wing fences for sure.  ;D

Is that the Heller 1/72 scale Bobcat Harrier?
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 indeed, it is the Bobcat/Heller kit, a simplified snap-kit actually

Indeed so, but remarkably accurate, and the first 1/72 kit of the two seater Harrier IIRC.

If the outer wings were removed it would be a convincing mini-submarine. :)

Cool, I like it  :mellow: :thumbsup:
Unfortunately both BD-10 & BD-14 have been used already by Jim Bede by the way...

Oops!!  :::embarassed face:::   ;D      How's about the BD-9? Tomcat.... nine lives?  I need to go read up on these Bede planes.  I had no idea there were more than a couple! :mellow:

remainings of the day : I had the booster from an old 1/144 space shuttle kit, and bits from the blimp shown previously ...
it was a fast match.





I knew I recognized that shape.  ;)
