QANTAS Concorde II

[Firefox]

In an alternate reality, Concorde lives on and improved and rebuilt many times. The QANTAS operates a few Concorde II specialized for AU to US West Coast and Europe for those who could afford the exorbitant airfare. The Concorde II features uprated engines and horizontal tail to improve the AoA during take off and landing and shorten the required runway slightly. The lean burn high thrust booster rocket slung under its belly indicates that it is flying AU to US West Coast route. The multiuse booster rocket can only be lit up over water and pushes the top speed to Mach 2.8+

It's Revell 1/144. I guess it's the only 1/144 on the market. Very dated kit but still can make a beautiful one out of it. I like their panel lines, they are fine and deep, unlike so many modern kits, the panel line can hardly be seen after two coats of paint. Another 1/144 is from Airfix, but that one is a prototype Concorde, very different from the production one.

I agree with ya Firefox..your panel lines are very good for something that small but course the panel lines are over done on very small kits cause if they were to scale ya wouldn't see them at all which works great for you ..beautiful build mate   

PS..Ive always wondered what the Concorde would look like with a T tail.

I wish I could see it......

Very nice!

The horizontal tail is inspired by one of the many Boeing 2707 concept of the same era. It does look good on Concorde though.

I use Postimg to host the images, not sure if it has region restriction though.

Nice work.  She looks good with the roo on the tail.

Personally I don't like your panel lines but its your model so you can do what you want and you've done it well.
