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! :)

Interesting, looks very natural. But I agree that some other (German) engines would have been more suitable than the Merlins - at least DBs, or Jumo power eggs.  ;)

RAFF-35

What a fantastic idea, very well built and finished too  :thumbsup:

"a project which never materialized. In 1943 the FiAF HQ asked VL if it would be possible to build a copy of the Mosquito with DB605 engines. Two crashed British aircraft would have been requested from Germany to serve as models. "

I like it a lot.  Maybe a schräge music installation would have been the go as well.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

That re-engined Finnish Mossie looks nice. Very subtle.

I did a night fighter with Hercs, that' what an alternative with BMW 801s might look like?

Very nice  :thumbsup: The Finnish one looks excellent as well
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Doesn't look like you had any fun when you built this one  :thumbsup: I know we're certainly not BO+RD looking at it  :thumbsup: Love the colours and pattern. That would certainly turn a few heads !

CANADA KICKS arse !!!!
