However, there's no denying that of all the V bombers, the Victor has a definitely threatening presence.

I don't know why, but I've always wanted to model one with the fuselage shortened to bring the tail right up to the wing. It would look so right among the Gerry Anderson T-Birds.

If you can get a few images into a art package, i bet you could work some magic to see what she looks like - i certainly see where you're coming from... cool idea ! and defo agee on her looking the business threat wise, a certain "evil" look

Yoy may be interested to see pictures of such a recolor on my New Photo Collection on flickr.com/photos/zeist_bouwplaten

Very interesting Thank you, a great collection of model photo's and here's a very interesting link to the story about the Stirling bomber that is the subject of the model. Society of Friends of the Airborne Museum Oosterbeek

I used to have the old Matchbox kit of the Victor and while building the fuselage I couldn't help thinking of how much it looked like the old Flash Gordon style of rockets

I just had a memory "Ping". I was sure I'd seen card models of all three V Force kites somewhere. So I've been on a search of my archives.

Yep, all three are there ... fiddly small scale stuff, but they will probably blow up OK. They were free downloads from Hdb Makett in Hungary, but I can't put a finger on a URL, so I don't know if they are still available.

Probably findable through Google, but I've got mine so you'll have to search them out yourself if you want them.

Johnny.

I am interested in a Korean war Fairey Firefly for my Korean War 1/200 aviation museum.
Thank you very much.
