Got the looks of an agricultural/crop spraying type to my minds eye  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

last but not least :







after having finished it I see potential improvement of course, but the most salient features are visible here

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! :)

That does have real class!!    It makes me  wonder what a slip-wing Mustang would look like?   The Hurricane slip wing  here:-http://www.vintagewings.ca/VintageNews/Stories/tabid/116/articleType/ArticleView/articleId/448/Biplane-Hurricane.aspx   might prove entertaining. Scroll down the page for the full story.

Looks very much a late 1920s design, last blast of the parasol-winged fighters. Gorgeous!  :thumbsup:
Cheers.

Yes, I like that one, it's almost elegant.  :thumbsup:

Agree with both, indeed it screams "Arado" at me for some reason.

Second that. It looks better than it should!

thanks all  ;)

it could look even better with some of your skills, if you feel like it

I can see it in immediate pre-WWII Adel'Air markings somehow.

Rufe tricyle, red :

Thanks for the explanation! (I was compeletely puzzled, unable to identify it from its aspect only).
