  oh this is going to be good 

[kerick]

It must be B for biplane!

[Tophe]

Thanks!

Uh, for the biplane way, I am not sure, I thought of tandem wings, the rear one near the tail being on a higher position thus above on the front view. (To be confirmed).

Here are the parts I plan to use:
and the results of the first drops of glue, to build the fuselages.

Then adding putty to fill the holes that should have received the jets and fins RW way:

First sanding:

Then adding putty on the other side of the fins, + glue on the rest of little parts:

I face a strong dilemma: both my Phalkonn 110B and previous 110 are single fuselage planes with a lateral extra pod, while I love twin-boom (and twin-fuselage) airplanes, almost only (together with asymmetric ones, yes, but this is not enough).
So I change a little my plan, for the port pod to hold at least one tailplane or/and foreplane, becoming a fuselage then, into the Phalkonn 110C design...

The second sanding (simple) has been done, and continuing to glue makes the model take shape.
The hand is here to show 1/144 scale is small, even if the final result will be (whif-ly) 1/72 as not a double biz-jet but a two-seater with 2 bubble canopies...

  Crazy good!
I didn't realize how small that was. I would have to wear my 3X reading glasses.

[Tophe]

Thanks!

Then gluing the port foreplane and the starboard T-tailplane:

The Phalkonn 110 model is now completely built, ready for paint:

I just hope this design is not the cause of Marcel Dassault's heart attack...

[Wardukw]

Nailed it again Tophe mate 
Now the paint..what colours are ya thinking of going for dude ?

[Tophe]

For paint: as usual, my models are blue birds, so acrylic light blue will be used overall (with black canopies/eyes). This is not a machine in my mind but a thing, half an animal. Sorry for my lacking seriousness: I am a what-ifer...

You out did yourself on this one Tophe. It's magnificent!
