Excellent dude, these are great and plenty weird!

There is this unrestrainable urge to jam some wires in those and pose the racers in flight around a giant checkered pole! That would be cool!

Great imagination sir!

I've already commented on the 229, but the P38  :wub:  :wub:

What scale is the Osprey ? Looks tiny

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Oooh, Tophe is going to lurve that FSW P-38, especially as its non-military :)

BTW, where is he, haven't seen him for a while...  :unsure:

And the stuff is no weirder than some of my more... inspired projects!  :dum:  :dum:

Great stuff!
