One of those things that is completely and joyfully batsh*t, the first time I ever
came across a drawing of it, many years ago, I was gobsmacked by the sheer
lunacy.

Nice to see it finished with the doors now fitted, it was a fantastic build and it certainly got the most attention on the stand at SMW.

So what do you top it with next year ?  :wacko:

It did garner a lot of attention, that's for certain. I don't know about topping it. Perhaps for next year I can get the P.17A done to perch on it, with a few Techs crawling around on it maybe. Or get the Avro 730 done, or perhaps a P.10. I think it'll depend how I get on with what I already have planned. I'm trying to work through the kits I have in the order I bought them (more or less) or became aware of them (for the stuff I have to print).

At least some of those techies around the Shorts PD.17 should be carrying really, REALLY long ladders... ;)

And really REALLY strong ear defenders too!  :-\  :o

And if they're operating from a German forest clearing, they should probably have some fire extinguishers too.

And have good contracts going with some local lumber merchants to get rid of all the flattened trees!  ;D

An excellent model Stuart  :mellow: .  Impressively detailed and crafted, and just so weird!
