BigWing




So, taking apart my Griffon kit for use of some of the parts for my Fish 'Bot project. Which means junking this rather nifty backpack affair he sports.
It occured to me that if i turn it round and point it forward you get a nice spaceship with huge great wings either side of a tiny cabin - with a nice bulge for a canopy up top.
So, bung on a coupla greeblies and a coupla tank affairs, mainly to hide the fact that half a hing on one side had pinged off years ago, prime with white and its done.
Then sprayed in a bright yellow. Again, i want to invoke the spirit of Peter Elson but also what now is the canopy will be gloss black so i wanted a contrast to that.
