Eddie Kruk's 1/144 HS 681

Eddie sent these to me for the next addition of the UK SIG Newsletter and that won't be published until end of October I'd thought I'd post it here as it's a really good piece of work

Using a Comet 4's wings.

That's a pretty darn good kitbash.  :thumbsup:

Wasn't that one of the versions of the 681 that they really did consider?
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! :)

That looks very good  :thumbsup:
It might look better on a stretched C-130.

What does Comet look like with Herk wings?

According to Woods Project Cancelled, it was a last gasp effort.

Eddie's done a nice job on that.
