Nice neat details  :thumbsup:

Sorry, kerick, nothing's coming to me! :-\

Just try to busy it up a bit, mostly symmetrically but with a few oddities thrown in for good measure, & do what every good whiffer does to explain things - Make sh!t up! ;D

I need to know what I could do with the back side of this beast. Any ideas?


Some BIG exhaust pipes? Like the back end of an F-14 maybe?
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! :)

Which is silly BUT does give me the idea that you could, perhaps, do a couple of armoured fan vents for forward propulsion.

Exhaust and cooling vents perhaps, like an Abrams.

A continental kit, lots of chrome and about a dozen '59 Caddy bullet tail lights?

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

I have a pair of F-4 Phantom burner cans in 1/48th......... Maybe cut down a little.....

Obviously.  I was remiss not to include them.

I think i got the back end figured out.





Next up some decals/transfers, tools and detail paint.

Very futuristic, and the rear panel has just the right level of complexity too.  :thumbsup:
