How about some piccies and a quick review then?
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! :)

If I ever get this far into the stash then it'll probably end up as an RV.

Eventually, I plan on whiffing a LAV-25 as an RV.  ;D

Anyway.........just ordered this morning from Freetime Hobbies:
2 x Moebius Models Original Battlestar Galactica

I plan to whif this sometime in the future. That's why I need the extra flight pods.



Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

hawk (most trusted name in modelling  :smiley:) Supermarine Swift ....when it will get built is another matter!

Airfix Douglas Invader ....will appear with RAF roundels, but amazingly not a whiff
Oh to be whiffing again :-(

We (Brits) had 2 didn't we ? If war had continued would have received a large number more

I do have a plan for a SEAC one eventually and maybe a European based one (RAF)
