Re: What's on your work bench atm ?
That Tigercat does look nice. Interesting to see how thin the fuselage is compared to the engines.

Notorious tailsitters... even the real ones. Is this the old Monogram kit? Haven't done one since I was a kid.

This is the AMT kit. Such a tail sitter that it comes with a barrel/box to set the tail on.
Crazy skinny fuselage but such a beautiful airplane.

Re: What's on your work bench atm ?
It's interesting that that Tigercat's landing gear looks completely different to me than the ones on the kit's model. Am I just seeing things or has the LG design been changed?
Naw, I guess not as I just checked a pic of my model. I guess they are the same after all! D'oh...
Thank you, sir!

Skinny fuselage, big propellers.
Never knew their wings can be folded. Interesting...
