Me 323 & B707, blue : hybrid aircraft/animals e.a.

[Tophe]

Great! So good again!
Sorry: if I do not say "this is better and better", it is because the twin-boomer came first...

a banana in space!







I cheated a bit, by allowing for extended wheels and at the same time putting it on the booster ;-) because both views are nice

The shuttle is an Academy 1/144 (of which I had some cheap copies, still one left ...)

[Tophe]

With the heat coming down to earth, the banana would be cooked, good!

Bananae Frites ?!?

I'm beginning to think eric has some sort of hypnotic influence. The other day I bought a bunch of banana bread for no earthly reason.

a psychedelic influence ? 

and it is not finished : I am designing a whole suite of aircraft across the ages (wait and see, more to come ;-) )

I like the use of all 3 colors on the banana shuttle!

[Tophe]

a psychedelic influence ? 

Yes! Look at the proof: this morning, for no reason at all, I designed Lightning with nuclear jets, and the pilot was endangered by the rays so the Girafning version was better, then... a Banananing variant came into my mind, why???

[ericr]

bananas and giraffes? I might get influenced in return 

[ericr]

there are not only bananas in life :

"this is not a pipe" (as Magritte once said) but made of one, with elements from a Mi-1 helicopter in 1/72 :







as most of you will have promptly noticed, appropriate weighting in order to avoid tail-sitting
involved a quite delicate front wheel placement

The rotor seems crazily logic: to dilute the tobacco fume into the air...

thanks

*laughs softly* Beautiful adaptation of a pipe for a novel item.  I wonder if this could be an icon for "pipe dream"?
