Wow ! That's just wild ! Nice idea for sure. In some weird way, there's just about as much I like about it as I don't like lol. Like the world's two coolest aeroplanes just don't make a match, but they do, but they don't.....
CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

Long Live the Commonwealth !!!
Vive les Canadiens !

I finished this in 2023 but was never really happy with the paint job and the decals. So I decided to redo it in another colour and create my own decals for it.

So here is the F13F Lion from VX-4 "The Lions" in Gloss Sea Blue.

Coooer, is that what happens when you leave a Vulcan and a Tomcat in a locked  hangar overnight?  ;)

It looks SUPERB Tom, specially in Midnight Blue.  :thumbsup:
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! :)

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .

Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

- 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.

For some reason I failed to comment on the previous version, but I thought it was great!  :mellow:

This one, I love!  :bow:  :bow:  :wub:
