Image Description: please be kind, this is a work in progress.
As you can see, this is based on the same body style as the fighta, just increased in size, here you can see the different plates that have been placed together to get the shape, as well as the cardboard strips used to initially hold it together, the strips are eventually replaced using plasticard angle strips from a local hobby shop. the guns are scratchbuilt as well using plastic tubing that's been drilled, and had a q-tip inserted and then cut at the right length. the bubble turret is that plastic bubble you get out of those 25 cent toy bubble gum machines. the cockpit area has yet to be carved out and the nose piece has yet to be finished, but when finished should look more like the forgeworld nose cone piece than the fighta's nose does. you can also see the toasted oats cereal box logo that was used to make the wings. :D
