Apophenia's Art

[Apophenia]

This is a space-holder for posting notional images that I can link to.

This thread is called "Apophenia's Art" because I'm a sucker for alliteration ... not because I have pretensions to creating 'Art' (especially after seeing the calibre of artwork done by some other members of this forum!).

I'm posting these sideviews here because, if you're not a member of the Beyond the Sprues forum, you won't be able to view these images. Comments and brick-bats welcome.

If you are interested in what-if scenarios, alternative history, or just fine model building, I would urge you to get on over there and join Beyond the Sprues!

This concept sprang from news that the Hellenic Air Force was to rationalise their fighter force by reducing the total number of types in service.

Since MadRat brought this up:

How about cross-breeding the gun, engine, and intakes off the F-104 with the F-8?

A somewhat similar concept from a recent post on Beyond the Sprues ...
