SPA Modeler

My lastest, "secret" project...

Started with a tail...added some bits, scribed and riveted.



Then the wings...scribed, riveted, dropped flaps and flaperons...





Then the pit...added some bits and a spare True Details bang seat...







A little bit of rhinoplasty...(new nose is from 1/32 F-18 drop tank)



Also threw a little scoliosis at it...(1/48 A-4 spine hump)



Added tip tanks (1/72 F-4 drop tanks)



Re-configured "delta-ish" with canards.....cuz I love the word "canard"!!!

Hmmmmm...this is a mystery to me. Only think I can identify is a cut on your left index finger...

Continuing on...in "secrecy"...

Added fins to the tail....F-14 style....



Scratched up some electronics pod (for lack of anything better to call em!) for the top of the tail...



...and another pod for the chin...



Weapons selected...for a multi-role, multi-mission, carrier capable, all weather, day/night, super sonic attack aircraft, capable of close quarters dogfighting, BVR, anti-shipping, ground pounding and electronic warfare, in the modern combat arena and far into the future!



Wings and tail attached....



Added some antennas and an extra set of winglets, to further enhance it's already astounding maneuverability...






229 Fermis bucks to whoever can guess the base kit!

I don't always bleed...


But when I do,
I bleed for Hydra!

Looks outstanding, but mysterious. Almost looks to be based upon the MiG from the Eastwood movie.

Yeah, that one! Not enough (none) coffee yet. Getting old sucks. I think. Don't remember.
