    Here's my QF-4 cockpit. 1/48 Hasegawa F-4G converted to the aforementioned plane. Bulkheads are scratch-built. Paints are by Mr Paint. This will hopefully resemble a QF-4 practice drone.

    Nice detail! Well done - pity it'll all be blown to bits... 🙂

    I might add a couple of firecrackers to it.

    Now your talking... 🙂 I remember as a kid when some friends would do that to their builds... or "sink" their battleship models with BB guns... My how the times have changed.

    Looks great ! Drones are cool looking planes. I'll be looking forward to future updates...

    Thanks, Louis. Yeah, I remember those days well. We did the same thing. Revell kits were only about a dollar at the supermarket. We'd do a half-assed job of building them, squeeze glue all over them, and light 'em up. I'm sure we inhaled a few toxic fumes in the process.
