I took a pair of DC-10 1/300 by Hobbycraft. Then I began a 4 engine stretched fuselage version à la Airbus A340, taking a graft from one to the other. Remaing parts include a short fuselage and a pair of long tail engines. Et voila.

Brings to mind the result of a drunken night between a Dornier Do-31 and an Antonov An-72.

Your design sense is to be envied and this one's fantastic!
