Great work  , this reminds me of a kitbash I started building  using a 1z/72 C-130 with the twin booms from a C-119. I will have a rummage tomorrow and see if I have any C-119 parts as I can always alter the Heliplane.
My A.W. Argosy AEW.3 with a cushion landing system.

Those are 1/48 scale Allison V-1710s on a 1/72 scale C-130, and they're piston engines, not turbo-props like the ones on the Tu-142.....................

Oddly enough I can see that being a tilt wing al la the Osprey with engines that size.  You'd have to remove the booms I suppose, but ...................

I believe those are 1/32nd scale P-38 booms.

P-38 is 1/32 indeed !

I had a try earlier on a Transall and Osprey (1/48)
