Two whiffs on HS:

Dornier Do 335B6/2 Night Fighter:



For those not sure, this is somewhat what it will look like:



There was also this Spitfire Racer:



and finally this cool Italian Regia Aeronautica Hawker Hurricane (Real world?):

yep the Hurricane is real, an ex yugolsav bird captured and tested by the Italians.
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

I think that Do335B-2 based nightfighter concept is the coolest looking LW46 Whiff ever.  I actually had one plus the Paragon set and sold it off because I knew I'd NEVER build it to completion.  But the combo of the armored windscreen, big cannon fairings, and radar is very cool indeed.  I actually intended to do mine with a podded radar scanner (like the F6F-5N or F4U-5N), since that would have been the next logical development for the Germans after the stag horn type antennas.

Hmm, I'd use a modified twin-nacelle from an Ar-234C for that center one and, structurally, I think I'd go for a constant chord configuration of some kind.

Greg, if you want I can forward my own Me-262Z concept for your perusal.  Just drop me the email address to use.

Oh. My. Goodness. That is magnificent! WOWOWOW! Ask Swanny to do one in the colours of that 262 for us!

Just kidding! That is fantastic, thanks so much for posting Greg! I know he has his own site, but has Mr Swann been asked to join this madhouse?
