Do you think you had done too much work for it to be allowed to be entered?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

No, i Don't think so. All major parts were apart from each other. Around july 1st I had three fuselages (2 with 1 wing, the center had non). I was about to cut the front of the middle one to extend this with the Hs132 fuselage. But that was done mid july. The rest were smaller bits like canopy and tail planes.

Then, in my book it qualifies for the GB.  We are often our own harshest judges so if you're happy, its in.

Would you like Chris to move this thread into the GB slot?

Thanks Fred for your judgement. Than i'd like to enter it into the GB.

I simply didn't realize it could be eligible. Still think I do her in Late WW2 German camouflage with three tones of grey.

I think an argument could be made for almost anything to be a tribute to Tophe and Robert.  They had a very wide range of interests.

Just make sure, if it's for Tophe, that it has no weapons.

Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Time for an update. Majority of PSR is done. Tailplane is made from 2 mm styrenesheet and put in place.

The tape is there to pinch the tailplane between the fuselages while curing.

Meanwhile the question arises : "is it a tailsitter or will it have a nose gear". I'm not sure yet. It looks good with a nose gear but I need to test the center of gravity and find a way into this.

I saw that and instantly thought 'Hughes XF-11'!
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! :)
