I'm working on a large diorama layout for another toy show and I want to build a sci fi hanger, something with a few cool fighters. After searching the internet, biglots, and random stores I made the choice to make my own. A few minor mods and paint and now this is where I am. The plane is called the Rapid Assault by The Corps, found at Walmart. They were only 6 bucks.

I really like the sci-fi angle. What I see looks very good and I'm interested in seeing the finished product. However, I'm not a big fan of the reversed vertical stabilizers.

Thanks! During my time in the Air Force I saw some cool planes. While over seas I saw a Russian Sukhoi S-37. It was parked on the flight line so I stopped and checked it out. The wings were awesome to me and thats were I got the idea. The fighters are for a film and I'm taking a gamble that the reversed vertical stabilizer will show up great in the shots. A few more mods and we'll see.

They had these at a Marc's near me around X-mas. I though of making some space fighters out of them as well. Can't wait to see how yours turn out.

Flash Gordon ship. That would be cool! What did you do with the interior on the Devilfish?
