Yep. Looks like Luigi Colani and a Luigi Colani design.
I'd forgotten that he made a fighter design too. He did make designs for all sorts of things. Shoes, trucks, you name it.

He also designed several air speed record aircraft, e .g. this one:




...and almost anything else, e.g. this here:

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

The crew of that loco are going to be SERIOUSLY cooked! They're sitting right on top of the smokebox!  :o

But it does look very impressive.
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's all kinds of crazy!

But not in a good way...  :o

Yes it is, it was built for a RAF charity! What could be more good than that? :unsure:

Bravo, the builders! It may be an ugly PoS but it's a GOOD ugly PoS! :thumbsup:
