Speaking of conformal fuel tanks, what about a set to allow one to model the Typhoon with these:





And/or perhaps the F-4 proposed one:

Scifi and Fantasy / Sky Surfer

« Last post by tiking on Yesterday at 11:53:51 PM »

The inspiration for this build was a 3D drawing version done by Kris Turvey,for an ILM Star Wars, competition . This is pretty much a hover surf board. As usually, I modified everything to my liking but the over look is pretty much the same. I scratch built this using various parts from my 'box of misc parts'. Now, I have to find a figure that will fit. Any suggestions, please let me know. The scale is 1/24.

Very nice!

What did you use for the cab?

And, if I may suggest? Possibly add something person in the cab, like a lunch box or bottle of water or thermos. Something to show a personal connection and a splash of colour.

But I do like it a lot.

Thank you. I am looking for a figure that will go together with this piece. Have not found one yet. Agree with the little personal effects. The cab is actually from a 1/24 scale toy front loader, which I modified.

Welcome to network centric warfare.

As long as enemy hackers can be kept out of our networks. And that's a real worry.

Scifi and Fantasy / G-8 CARGO POD

Another sci-fi build. Seem to be doing a lot of those these days. I have one more to do than I will be back to building the usual truck and 1/35 builds. I have been working on this for some weeks now and have gotten it to this point. The majority of the work is a combination of scratch building, and some kit-bashing. I pretty much used whatever and anything that was in my arsenal. Lots of small bits and pieces went into making this, a somewhat, believable sci-fi transport. I still have a little more work to do on the wagon behind the driver's compartment before calling it done.

What the USAF had to settle for when the C-132 was cancelled.

Do you think the C-132 would have been any better Evan ?

I'll have to get going on the 1/72 kit I have of the C-133, which is about the same size as the Short Belfast BTW
