Despite my saying no new projects until the bench is clear, alas an AirToon F-106. My first attempt is on the right.

Thank you Paul. Not to your outstanding level, but acceptable for my collection.

I gave it to a friend (along with the B-17), but would like to make another one eventually.

Another great model Lou.

Seeing what you and Paul have achieved with the "Toons"  I will try one down the track a bit.

Cheers

I find the toon models interesting. You really make it look "probable" by providing a diorama to photograph your models in.

Thank you Fraser. You should give one a try. Here are some nice images for you to look at. https://www.flickr.com/photos/31186322@N06/albums/72157620520651425

Wow! I had no idea that there was such a variety of toons out there. I actually find it funny that the helicopters don't seem to change much......

I have the 444 CS Sqn Twin Huey AirToon tuck away in the back of my mind. They currently fly the Griffin but had the CH-135 when I was posted there 90-93. The attached photo is the 1/24 Twin Huey I made while posted there.

Had another closer look at the link. Mmmmmm. Lots of inspiration.
Definitely one a bit further down the track.
