I bought this in early 2008 and have just got round to building it.Due to the very thin casting/moulding it's been a trial sticking the deck and hull together, so not that pretty. I added my own wood decal to the deck.

WHOA!! Amazing Just Amazing I seen a few drawings on Deviant Art, that shown quite a few kooky jet vehicles. In fact I have on the shelves an Emhar Bedford Tipper than I was going to turn into a lowrider, BUT this may well be the way to go. Thanks so much for sharing.
Very Interesting! When thinking about this type of propulsion I look at video's or film of our Harrier Jump Jet, showing the adjustable nozzles on the side of the crat.
Yes Steve it was fun to build as it's only a snap kit, so adding extra detail makes all the difference! The flames took me a while to think up. I looked at various videos on YouTube but none fitted this build. So I will look into improving that aspect of future builds where flames need to be shown.
Cheers guys, it's the first time I've bought one of these Snap Kits. As someone said you need to add details/decals/flames, tyre smoke etc. I'll have to look into that, I have found a few on YouTube tutoring video's for that.

I will need quite a while to perfect exhaust flames, but on this one I found side flame decals and laid them up on clear plastic sheet (food carton)...........
As no decals came with the kit I found these in the spares box.
