Quote from: Oldpanzer1 on September 05, 2023, 10:00:27 AMI really like this! Excellent job and colors! I want to make one now! :thumbsup:
Been having the same thoughts, but Ive been to scared to say it out loud  :wacko:

I've been thinking about Hornet wings on a Spitfire and Tigercat wings on a Hellcat.
OK I could do the Hornet wings on the Spitfire and I do love the idea of Tigercat wings on a Hellcat ..that's sounds great 👍
No chance of finding another Tigercat here ..finding the first one was a miracle another would be the end of the world  :wacko:

Ah, but you are thinking too big (literally).  I am talking 1/72.

Transfers on today.

Mate I would be talking 48th but even my extremely low level of common sense knows that's not a bright idea  ;D
72nd would be the way to go for this sort of thing .

That's really coming together now Fred..looks better to with the WW1 German crosses  :thumbsup:

Adding the decals always brings out the 'properness' in a model I reckon.   :thumbsup:
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! :)

The markings? 

I can but quote from Guide to My Sky the Free Winds (published by zenrat-javelin press © 2017).

Forced from their homeland by the Empiricum during the Purgeric Expulsions of the Spring of Blades the proud warriors of the Himmelreitter Fliegende Teufel welcomed with open arms the chance to strike back against those who had driven them to the very edges of what had once been the Holy German Empire.

I think I have some lozenge transfers left over from a little Fokker.  I'll have to see what I can do on the next of my anime builds.  Although I really should attempt something from the other side next.

Absolutely
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Nah it's Lloyd Rickover.  A former sign-writer from Daws Park who chucked it all in to seek fortune and adventure fighting in the skies of the free winds...
The family name was changed by an immigration official when they immigrated to South Australia in 1919.

Canopy on.  Legs and wheels on.  Exhausts on (centre pair scratchbuilt).  Props are painted and ready to go on.  UC doors and tanks need clearing.
Current armament is two guns above the centre engine.  I'm thinking of adding air to air rockets under the outer wings.

No Motorkanone?
The exhausts look pretty elaborate. Is it a night fighter?
