You'd get horrible mileage with all that fur  :thumbsup:

I'm not so sure.

IIRC Boeing researched a method of drag reduction a while back that involved small 'whiskers' all over the upper wing surfaces. I don't recall what happened to it but I bet JCF does.......  ;D
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! :)

A... different sort of whif (or whif-ful thinking?)  :lol::


I laid out a scheme on a 1:1  Chevy van that has a Fuel Altered dragster on one side and a T bucket on the other. Someone else painted it after I did the drawing and penciled it onto the van.

MPC did a couple of van kits with similar decals.

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

I have that kit.  it was cheap because termites had eaten most of the box, the instructions and the decals...
One day i'll recreate the decals but with Dennis Hopper.

Hah! That's topical, they've just had Steppenwolf playing it on a re-pop of the Old Grey Whistle Test!  :thumbsup:

In fact I found it searching for vanships on the net. ;D
BTW the author known as KATOYA is IMHO a kitbash-guru and some of his creations are vanships:
