FIAT G.81 (what-if)

[Pellson]

That's a really natural shape, Arne.

Thanks Pellson. I follow your Revell Draken build. It's a great inspiration, as I have a wreck lying around somewhere. Maybe I should give it a try.

That looks sufficiently different to be significantly cool!       

Indeed! Very good idea. Intriguing shape that will drive JMN nuts. 

Pardon my ignorance. Whats the meaning of JMN?

If I am not wrong, it was used here to define fanatics rivet-counters, joyless modelling nazis, maybe the wording is fallen in disuse. sorry.

Exactly right, and I used the phrase only last Saturday at the NEC Show, so it's still alive and kicking.   

LOVE the G.81, it looks so 'right'.

We had a couple of them at the NEC Show, they just stood in front of the stand and shook their heads before walking away.

But most of the public were fine about us, and we had a lot of chats about the whys and wherefores of whiffing.

I think I would enjoy a forced conversation with gits like them    😈

[PR19_Kit]

We often do, and they STILL go away shaking their heads!

Once one guy pointed at my Meteor PR19 and said 'Why did you go and ruin a perfectly good Matchbox NF14 kit?'  so I replied 'If you think a Matchbox NF14 is 'perfectly good' there's no point in us continuing this conversation!'
