I would say that lifting bodies are one of the most challenging paper models to design. In my scale: squarey WWI easier to lifting bodies hardest
(not a request).
Happy modeling, and thank you for the homage!

Hee hee ... I just Googled 'Lifting Bodies'

I found this one quite desireable ...

join to Carlos, this was quick, any plans to the Super Mystere?
but any way it's really nice collection, it will drive me to bankrupt buying all Israeli aircrafts

Second to that, John.

It surely has something to do with nice smooth curves. But this is not quite what was meant by lifting bodies, John.

[Texman]

I agree. The lifting body series would be awesome! Even in plastic, these are seriously overlooked airframes.

Oh I got them too, but you obviously didn't scroll down as far as I did.

Some nice looking craft among them, but as said, maybe too many complex curves to stroke into card. No, that's not a challenge Bruno. They're not on my desired list. Nearest I go to that is the shuttle, and I've got one of them. I just can't build it yet as my fingers are getting worse instead of better.

Sad to hear that, John.

By general demand, the metallic version of the IAF (with yellow band)

Seems I forgot Nr 2009. So here is the metallic version of the IAF (without the yellow band)
