Can I assume each of those propeller blades is a separate item as in most Anigrand kits ? If so then  :bow: to you sir.


For those of a faint hearted nature, the second XF-11 only had four prop blades per engine.  ;D
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! :)

It's beautiful Tom. It's so rare (for me at least) to see one of these completed, let alone as a whif. Just gorgeous! Bravo!

Very elegant - don't recall ever seeing a pic of the type with its gear down before.
There are several out there - this Hughes fan spent a while downloading them all in preparation for that glorious day when I get an XF-11 of my own.

8 or 16, after just tackling the Moonbat I'll leave it for a while, although I am tempted  :angel:

In all fairness to Anigrand the 8 needed for the Moonbat assembled ok, although if I have pitch and even direction correct is another thing, and frankly I don't care a .......  :rolleyes:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
