Your brain can't take in all of that Mossie at one go, you keep on seeing things you never did before! :)

Well done, amazing thought processes and building skills.
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! :)

I just love the whimsy of the pusher/puller engine configuration and that Coastal Command scheme is a perfect fit!

My thoughts exactly - can you imagine trying to shoot that Mossie down, you'd have fits figuring out which way it was going  :blink:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

going to make supports for the Horten & maybe try out a few other combinations, & maybe add an inflight refueling apparatus to the Lanc  :tornado: ;D

Eye-candy overkill!  Wow.  You mention making some supports for the Horton....is there any sort of universal linkage/mounting receiver already built into your Lanc's wingtops?

The Spit/Mossie mash-up looks particularly cool!  :thumbsup:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

This is excellent, Vostoc - it looks superb. One point - would it be better to remove the top turret and put a simple plug (or even an observation dome with cameras etc) in its place? That would be a sensible modification for a mothership/ test aircraft. Very cool model, though. :thumbsup:
