Oh Tophe you evil genius you  ;D  :lol: :lol:
Now the 3 engined verison has some merit there matey  :lol:
Thanks guys for that..i dont know why but the more i worked on this the more the buzz seemed to fade..we've all had it but it very rearly ever happens to me ..i just normally change plans but for some reason i didnt change much..oh yeah the ideas for its missions were going up and down like a yoyo amd i didnt redo anything on the model..just removed 2 things..this one is a strange one guys buy im glad you guys liked the end result  ;D

That's REALLY something!  :thumbsup:

Only the fin gives away its B-58 origins, superbly done.  :bow:
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! :)

Zen man thats a awesome looking model and yeah our load outs are very close ..which is cool ..for all we know these planes could have very simlier missions as both of them could do the strike fighter rolls  ;D
