I guess something  had to be around for Hamilton Standard and Dowty Rotol to stay in business all this time.  ;D
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! :)

Great! (but I am scared, are they animals from Earth or monsters from Hell?) :-\ ;)

I stumbled upon this on the web somewhere :


and it gave me ideas, with other car kits :

the Peugeot 203, in red





and the Peugeot 403, in blue





both 1/43, combined with a 1/35 pontoon (german, by Bronco Models IIRC)

Nice.
The boats are the Dragon German Army 'assault' boat, I have one in work at the moment converted
to inboard power with the White straight-6 from an old Bandai 1/48 M3 half-track.

thanks !

with the remaining airframes of 1/350 Ro.43 and MB411, after stealing their floats for other purposes, I did something insect-like, like in the past with fly-tape or a glass, but this time with a flower (1:1, injection plastic, from Ikea):

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

you want more ?
really ?
wait and see  ;D
I will wait, anxious... I hope this is even more of just the same (already so incredible...). Going further seems impossible :-\ ;)

here is what the Buccaneer fuselage became, with wings from the spares box, coming from a Twin Otter



I was so tempted to try the reciprocal, that I found cheap sales boxes of the former Matchbox, now Revell kits, and here is the
Twin Otter and Buccaneer wings, red :
