For Christmas, I got a Revell 1/100 Easy Kit of A-10:
Of course, I am going to remove weapons and shark mouth but not only: I will decrease its span and length, having the jets installed on the wings probably...

Butcherizing has started!:
This will be a canard, with jets above the wings.

That looks cool! Wouldn't look out of place in some sci-fi flick! :)

Love the look, Tophe!
Since it's a bit smaller, perhaps only one engine mounted in back?
Either way, great mudfighter! :)

Neato! Has a distinctive star fighter feel to it now. Perfect for a good sci-fi movie
If you want to stay in the real world it strikes me as a possible parasite aircraft.

Thanks for the comments, friends!
The parasite idea is especially interesting, as I could let the sharkmouth on: aboard an observation aircraft, it would be released to frighten the attacking ones, without a single shoot, just showing teeths...
