The Barnes Wallis Swallow, an SST design from 1955! Swing wings, and swinging engine pods, too. Started this one 2 nights ago, and finished most of the main design the first night. Yesterday I just added some detail and refinements, and started the first test build last night. Sure wish I hadn't run of of color ink again. This one looks great in Pan-Am markings (like the Fantastic Plastic kit version I'm using as a reference).
The first pics of my "half-fast" build were taken in my current cramped building area on the kitchen table, next to my building case and a pile of printed kits. The port wing parts are just dry fitted. I still need to decide how to, or if, I'm going to make the swing function workable.
I'm following my usual design process, 2d development, test build, adjust and modify the design as I find issues.
