That works really well.   :thumbsup:

Where did the canopy come from?
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! :)

It's part of an old Airmodel set of different vacuformed canopies. I think this one was meant for a Meteor NF.14.

Oh yes, I could see that on an NF14. It certainly suits your G.81 though.  :thumbsup:

That really does look good  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That looks so right, not just the tandem Venom design, but the colour and markings, just right for the time and place.  :wub:
Whatever.

Looking right champion!  :thumbsup:

I can se the pictures, when I open the site

PR19_Kit

I can now too, but if you reference the pics from your PC you'll always be able to see them. They need to be physically moved here before we can.

It looks REALLY good and so different to the side-by-side Vampires and Venoms.  :thumbsup:
