Splitting this off from my Super Stretch DC8-83 thread, I'll not give a blow by blow account of this build, just highlight some of the major steps that I've managed.



Here's the plugged together assembly, and just as glue-less as the Super Stretch.



This is the well OTT decal sheet. There's a fair amount of masked painting to do first, and I'll need some detail decals too, windows, hatches etc.
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

Thought it might be nice to see what you are aiming for as not everyone (ie me) is aware of this plane.

- 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.
