Maybe a tailless swept- or delta-wing air guitar? A B-2 stealth guitar springs to mind, or maybe a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird guitar with those necks as the forward chines.

ouh la la, excellent ideas all of these ... Right now I am rather trying to reduce my stash, so maybe later ...
But if you fell inspired, please go ahead, I would be happy to see that !

Moi? I am too busy working up my RAAF Twinfire "Mk.VV" knocked up for the defence of Darwin in 1943. But maybe one day, if you don't get there first....

ok, I'll put it in my to-do list

I have a few small bottles ("mignonettes") in my stash, and I realized I haven't tried a twin-boom yet

so here is a Flying Boxcar (1/144) with Gentiane
(Tophe, don't be afraid, I didn't even drink it, so the bottle is still full actually

)

Wonderful! And solid, the undercarriage holds it well!

ericr · February 28, 2016, 02:52:57 AM

thanks!

it is not so heavy actually ;-) the Boxcar is 1/144

Well done

this plastic violin was supposed to play music with a bit of electronics inside, but it was broken when I found it : maybe for the best, after all, for my ears

and I had a 1/72 Airfix wellington of the right size so I furthered my experiments in the spirit of this :

and here it is :

Tophe · March 02, 2016, 08:18:04 AM

Wow!

I began a series of 2cv hybrids, with different kinds of aircraft : monoplane high wing or low wing, biplane, twin-boom, twin-motor, jet

here is the first one, a 1/43 2cv with a 1/72 Saab 21 (both Heller)

McColm · March 04, 2016, 07:33:57 PM

Amazing, I want to build one!
