Here is a What-if model I have been working on for a while. Still not completely done but wanted to basically test out a homebuilt light box I built. So here are some shots of how it turned out after several editing in Infranview photo editor. Still not perfect but better than anything I have done. Again, the inspiration for this model was put into reality after seeing Igor Sobolevsky wonderful 3D art station work called 'Axiom Racing'. His 3d version is to 'die for'. Still need some touch ups in some areas and needs a stand, on a wooden base, when done.

Hope you all like this build.

Reminds me of Star Wars podracers too. What kind of racetracks does it use?

Ship it off to Spa Francorchamps immediately, Jenson Button needs all the speed he can get!  ;D

Super work there.  :thumbsup: :bow:
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! :)

Thanks for looking  fellows. Now that is a great build from a youngster. Congratulate him from me too.

Awesome job on the weathering. Just enough to show wear and tear without covering up the lines of the model.
