In which I finally get this bloody kit finished
Clothes pegs are an essential part of my modelling kit.
Don't ask me why but I really like wingtip tanks on jet fighters. Obviously that only works on straight-winged aircraft. This might explain why fighters after about the mid-50s don't interest me all that much.
There's a few exceptions - I have a soft spot for the Hawker Hunter and the English Electric Lightning - but most modern fighters leave me cold. Too mechanical and not enough beauty.
Isn't that a weird thing to say about a machine designed for killing? Aircraft buffs will get it, I think.
