  I love those 3 turtles (especially the 2 "twin-boom" ones) [I have imagination yes, and I plan to draw the missing link]

Here are the TU-38A, B, C that came before (but after... ) your delicious wing-less TU-38D... Darwin was right: evolution is the key!

Ah excellent ! thank you Tophe, this explains a lot indeed 
However I would suggest that the evolution, chonologically, is from my turtles to yours,
with wings getting longer and longer, obviously (remember PR19_kit's Law, defining the Sense of History)
until the P38 with very very long wings you just showed in your thread 

[Tophe]

You are absolutely right!: my Lightning P-38 was coming "from nowhere" and that does not obey Darwin's laws. So the P-38 Lightning is PROVEN as the grand-grand-daughter of a turtle! (with dinosaurs as forefathers)
(According to me, you deserve the Biology Nobel Prize for this brilliant discovery!)

Thanks again!
Now let us come back to ericr creations...

so, with all those wings fit to different things and beasts, I had quite a few spare fuselages for which to find an appropriate destiny.
Here are some of them, grouped in such a way as to bring aeronautic light around us :

Or just spin the props for a nice cool breeze on a hot day.

I had never imagined such a use of airplane models, congratulations

Should have used a candelabra with one less holder in my opinion

thanks!
desinging a multi-propeller fan is an inspiring idea
