If you are referring to the first post pic, prolly is. It was a random pic from google I found. It will be replaced when I get my model done.

Thought I would throw this out. I have decided to try doing the landing gear, A big thanks goes out to Thunderchild for helping with the gear templates.
I have about half the aft hull glued together. I was thinking, many have done the skyfighter, but few, if any, has done a tanker or transport version. So I was wondering about making my skyfighter able to separate and do a different version.
What you guys/gals think ??
tanker or transport ??

Like I told you, Zeta.
PURE Skyfigher! BOO on the Transport, Tankers and such! HAHA
...or at least leave it so you can take the middle out and make it back into a Skyfighter.

well that will have to be put on hold. :frak: :frak: :frak: BEFORE I can do anything I have to reinforce the thing, the center seam tries to come apart, its sagging under its own weight. SOOO if I am to do anything I need more reinforcement in that area. I am thinking a couple dowel rods across the seam.

Houston we have a problem 
In a attempt to reinforce the fighter, many parts were damaged an must be replaced. So I have placed it on hold, (again :frak: ), Until I decide what I will do, replace the parts or start a new fighter.
If I start a new one, I think I will do it a bit smaller so as to make it better suited for the transport or tanker add-on. Lessons learned will make the new one go easier.

I have decided to start over but the size has been reduced to 8 inch (20cm) wingspan. Hoping to have it ready for detailing and paint by end of month.
