I meant extra cartoony... Not sure why this stupid POS tablet pulled a really bad auto correct on me.

Working on the Spitsfire now. Decided to cut and drop the flaps and decided for extra car too my visual interest, to add old WWI style externally visible control horns and cables from wings to control surfaces. Is it correct NO...but neither are those big blown engine stacks...just plain fun. Love these things.

Shawn M.

love your avatar and screen name, lol!!

 

I wish they'd have released more of them! I'd have loved to see a P-38, Zero, Corsair or some bombers.

Anyone know if the FSM form would allow for such a request?

Maybe we can at least post requests on the most wanted thread ?

I'm glad they were reissued - they're really fun builds.

I love your 'hot rod' scheme!

Thank you!

Maybe a 6" wingspan and 6" long...not big at all and easy builds. The only bad spots are:

 

the upper and lower fuse seams

the wing joint

 

other then that very easy to build and SO easy to have fun with

That's a cool looking paint job. Almost looks like it's ready for the drag strip.

Nice Details !!!

I like the "flipper" in the scoop, racer side scoops,spinner details and paint job.

I can almost see flames spewing from the exhausts. Cool

Yet another fun build. After doing the "Spitsfire" I had to do one of these.

"Kit bashed" it into an early prototype bf-109-v14, with some twists.
