Nice idea you put into plastic there.  The change over on the air intakes looks very convincing as if it were a logical progression in the TSR.2 design.

Looks great!  :) The new intakes do look the part.  Not sure whether it has enough bombs hanging off it, though.  :P

Wow that looks great! The mods, the camo pattern, it all comes together most believably and beautifully!

Nice thinking using a computer fan on your spray booth, too!

The larger, 2-D intakes remind me of the TSR.2 "re-start" proposal floated back in the 1980's.  Do they go with uprated Olympus engines requiring increased mass flow?  Or an engine change out (I'm looking to do one with afterburning Medways, instead)?

Looks like one fast Gulf War penetrator and like it is OOB.  :)
What if they built them?  Then this would be it.

That is really good how you got the parts to blend together, I had a similar idea with the intakes but I was going to use a delta wing (Avro Arrow ones).  What kit did the wings come from ? and what scale is it ?
Title: Re: swing wing tsr2
Post by: eatthis on October 23, 2013, 03:34:32 AM
its 72 scale
im also planning a big delta wing version
the roots are modified tsr2 and the outer wings are modified f14 jobbies

I'd be careful about using such a fan on a spraybooth.  They unshielded and can produce sparks, which when mixed with the flammable air/paint mixture could result in explosion and fire!
