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! :)

Indeed  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Day off today.  No chores to do so I was looking forward to spending the whole day at the bench.
Hah.  More fool me.
I finally got there after lunch having been requested to prune a number of trees.

I have finished the "gluing bits on" stage of the bodywork on the Buick Ute.

Primer time!  And then the cycles of PSR will begin.

And an AMT '53 Studebaker Starliner I have been working on is primed with foil on the scripts and is ready for paint when the weather permits it.

This is going to be a stock build.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.  Revelling in numptytism.

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

Thanks Kit.
Second time around for the Studebaker kit.  First time (18 years ago) I chopped the roof and powered it with a Mazda rotary engine.

One of the best looking US cars of its time for sure, properly styled, rather than last years model with added bits.
