It's early, but I neverthless open a thread for project #6. Let's describe it as a Fifties RAF DNA experiment...  ;)

Hmm, the middle part's a Matcbox Meteor NF11/12/14 and the fin's from a 1/144 scale Concorde.

Not sure about the nose though. Buccaneer? Phantom?
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! :)

Regards

Yes, Buccaneer nose, and the Concorde is/was 1:200 (Revell snap-fit kit). But this is just the beginning...

I see a Matchbox Hunter wing or two as well?
Hmmmm.....

The British have raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved". Soon though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross". Londoners have not been "A Bit Cross" since the Blitz in 1940 when tea supplies ran out for three weeks

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

Gawd! Every time I read the title of this one I read "Barge-ar$e", I can't help it, it just happens! :rolleyes:

Whatever she is, she's looking intriguing, Dizzy! :thumbsup:

The change in the core fuselage is going to have lots of people head scratching  :thumbsup:

There's more to be changed! Remember the Hunter wings?

Lots of PSR involved, though.  :-\

Any plans for the Concorde wings?

These already ended up on a Su-15, many moons ago...

I thought that might have happened.
Thanks.

Did I already mention the massive PSR work that comes with the combination of parts that apparently never were intended to be stuck together?
