I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

- 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.

There a sci-fi convention in town this weekend?  Because I really doubt that's an adult "games" Cat suit :wacko:

A bunch of cosplay types gather outside a local collectibles shop every now and again, armed with charity collection buckets.  The Jedi Knight Benevolent Fund maybe.

No, not mine, but one or two whifs from other group members have appeared since I've joined and taken whifs to the monthly 'show and tell'.

This one (Ju52, Do217, Rotodyne mash-up) was in this month's themed competition, Airfix 1/72.

Now that's SERIOUSLY weird, but wonderful nonetheless!  :thumbsup:

Have you signed the builder up to be one of us yet Dave?
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! :)

Your mission has obviously been successful Dave  ;)  :thumbsup:

😂

I've taken a few whifs to monthly meetings - the Corsair BR.1 and Vickers Wellington (the twin-Mercury Wellesley) attracted quite a bit of attention, ditto the more recent Folland 'Foghorn' and the rarther older Bristol Bulletin.

RW Zero, Spitfire and (next month) Hurricane have been recent contributions, further whifs post-Telford and I'll support these with some SIG/forum-related 'missionary work' 😉
