Some initial PSR and engines and tails added.

BTW Kit, while the wings may appear short the fuselage is longer than that of a standard Mohawk.

That's no excuse, it's only partially allowable..................
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! :)

Mohawk always looks like the wings are too short. It flys, which makes it one of the wonders of aviation.

Weird is good Womby.  I like weird.

More sanding today and I attached the weapons pylons to the wings.

I'm really liking this!  Bit like a modernized AH-56 on steroids.

First primer.  More putty needed on places.  But not big amounts.

It's going to be part of the "My Sky the Free Winds" universe.

More putty went on today.
