I had lots of fun with this one and considering it's my first attempt at something like this I'm really happy with it.

Based loosely around an AI image I found, I chopped up a 1/72 Apache kit for the cockpit and went from there. It's all imaginary so there's no need to critique the aerodynamics or question how jet engines work in space! :tongue-out3:

Thanks guys.

I managed to edit the stand out of a couple of the pictures but I could really do with a "chucker" :smiling5:

What a great result, Andy.
Terrific imagination, all nicely brought into fruition!

I know a 'Chucker'. She said she would be happy to oblige and added she was quite used to being hired out before she married me......Can't think what she meant.

Thanks Ron, I will bear your wife's services in mind for the future. The chucking I mean!

Inspirational Andy - you may have started something now!! I bet more than one has looked at their scrapped kits and are wondering????
When I first mentioned my plan someone suggested it could be a great idea for a group build. Given the response I'm inclined to agree, but I'm not really the organising type.
