I figured we might need one thread to combine our 'Silly Week' comments, so here goes..
Today some guy called Chris has a Strikemanster bearing an uncanny resemblance to Falcon's from last month! :lol:
Super nice looking whif 'Super Kingfisher' too. do we know this guy?
And of course no day of silly week is complete without Alvis'-today's build was apparenty inspired by some guy in here who likes spats...anyone know who that is?? :D
yeah, it's always interesting to see Whif modelers take over the ARC main page around this time of year
That "Super Kingfisher" was quite striking. I think it's a combination of the prewar Navy colors with the brutish airframe of the Corsair and that big ventral fin. It was the shiznit, so to speak!
Nicely done ole chap! Very good indeed!

Comrades!
What are you all waiting for!?!?!? :P Someone begin sending invitations! :rolleyes:
Spats? What's a spats? My ex and I used to have some...
Nice job guys! :dum:
And that pickup truck was so realistc. That man is an artist! :cheers:
Okay Alvis, you had be BUSting a gut, and that line about the sailors and 'Monica' was a ripper! Bud's bomber was great too, one mean bad-donkey bird! :dum:
yep, another good showing today!
Bud's bomber is awesome, and Alvis' little details like the dog leash disappearing into the engine and the lipstick on 'Monica' are great.
Yeah the Monica piloted by Capt L. Tripp based on the USS William J Clinton was hilarious! Not to mention using markings of the VFA-22 Fighting Redcocks!!! :lol:
Alvis had me rollin! :lol:
Shas B)

Alvis,
Looking forward to the knife pass versions.

Dont forget that dave Bailey wierdo...he's got a nice looking build up today too! :D
As for the Lightning...I dont remember seeing that particular one before. It's a nice looking build, though the wing looks a bit far forward in the unswept config. Looks like the center of lift/center of gravity may make for an interesting ride! :lol: .
Still...it beats the hell out of my VG Lightning, and I love it!
Gentlemen, today was exemplary! A finer batch of what-if/sillyness I've not seen on ARC in many a moon!
Yet, oddly, there's barely a peep in their discussion board on it. Could it be ARC has gone off to total serious mode? Hope not!

Just shows most ARC`ers who didnt go on christmas holidays are JMNs :P :P :P
Love today's Huntsman, but that FSW Lightning is something else. Wow!!!
GOT to do me one of these. :wub: :wub:

Well where is Dan's mon-key to take over the board and hype it up? Has the banana brew supply dried up?
BRING BACK DAN'S MON-KEY!!![/size][/font]And I'm staying behind the eight ball Alvis, that looks too mean to mess with!
QuoteHas the banana brew supply dried up?
Cant he just drink vodka?
Well, she's all over for another year. Alvis leads the way as usual (I'll bet he has his psychiatrist on speed dial) but there were many fine contributions. And unless my 'board name' memory has failed me again (more than likely), does anyone know this Tim Mansfield? He definitely needs an invite! :cheers:
I think Tim's a member already. At least I think I've seen him around here.
I've got to submit my Conch Republic for next year's Silly Week. I totally brain-farted on them.
