Cool little model.

Nice model of a real bizarro-world little airplane. Built to be dropped...and recovered...by a big mothership aircraft, it wasn't the best idea anybody ever had.

Cool little fighter.  Hard to believe that it actually flew.

Pretty nice job! I've seen the real one, at the USAF museum.

Cool model!

Which kit is this one? I started and almost finished a 1/72 MPM kit about 15 years ago, but this one seems to a different kit. I usually don't build war planes, but this one is so totally bonkers I just had to give it a go.

Same kit. Mpm

Thanks.

Yes, this one looks more familiar to me. I had the pre upgraded-issue w/photoetched winglets (iIrc) and cart-mount brackets.  The thick winglets and lack of pitot tube on your model threw me off. You are a better man than me. You finished not just one, but two. Whereas I stalled at applying the metal finish.

Another (two) cool build(s). Again, I like you choice of subjects, and the quality of your builds.
