X-Plane Fan Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 As if building a half-dozen Blackbird eggplanes wasn't enough, I had a few more on the bench along with those. Just finished them up and now I can move on to building real aircraft again. So, here they are, smallest to largest. Ironically the smallest goes to the Bandai C-5 'gyro-plane' (minus the gyro, plus custom markings) which measures just a shade under 3 inches... Hasegawa Shuttle (with custom Challenger markings) Scratch built Boeing Phantom Ray... And finally, the Muroc Models X-1 (listed in their catalog as the Eggs-1) This was a fun project, but its time to move on to other things. Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pigsty Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 If they all take off at once, is that a scramble? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K2Pete Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 Oh-h-h man ... those look like fun! I may just have to do a shuttle too! I didn't even realize there was an "Eggs-1" ... it doesn't really look that different from the real thing ..! And how did you mask those tiny little radomes?? You did a really nice job on those Tony!

richter111 Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 The C-5 looked pretty spot on, are you sure it is an egg plane model??? My wife loves these things and wants a room full for our son Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aggressor Supporter Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 First time seeing the Bandai's eggplane version of the C-5. Love it! The others look great too especially the scratch built Phantom Ray. I sure do wish Hasegawa would design more new eggplane airplanes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
