!!! EXCITING UPDATE INCOMING!!!
Thank you very much!
In the meantime I was not lazy. Despite all time constraints and the heavy workload which is constantly on my shoulders I have some exciting news for you. This is going to be a somewhat longer post but since this thread is already a few years old I found it appropriate to delve into details as deeply as possible so that all of you understand what I am talking about.
Well then This project started as a result of the lack of a sreen-accurate Viper model. This was bugging me a lot. The Revell-Monogram model was nice for the time but it lacked a proper interior and had some weird structures on the intakes and too small thruster rings. Moebius could have avoided that but they chose to make the nose longer than it should be and nixed the organic look and feel of the Y-piece details which were totally acceptable on the Revell model. So you'll have to combine the two to get an ultimate Viper model. Eaglemoss took me by surprise big time when they released an almost perfect replica - if they had added an interior and landing gear.
So it was my turn to develop this model and bring it to a level it deserved. Now with the small one completed there is another task lying ahead, to increase the scale and make a 1/32 and a 1/18 version. The 1/32 is a given to have a match for all the other planes in that scale available. But I do know that there are many of you, especially my dear fellow warriors
@Rhaven Blaack and
@ASC Mclaren , are desperately wanting for a 1/18 version. Now I have some exciting news for you, because the time has come for a BIG announcement.
But please let me tell you how much I enjoy working with all of you, be it for feedback, tips and advice and the occasional whip to get me back on track. You are wonderful. And I mean that. I could not imagine a greater comunity than you guys and gals here on zealot.
So it is my honour to tell you that I have finally managed to get
your attention for this special occasion.
Because today is April 1st and if you can see this text I congratulate you!
Happy April Fool's Day! : - D
