Welcome, Mates! 🙂

Villiers de Vos
Robert, another of your unusual subjects. I am also booking my seat.

Ben M
watching the pancake

Jan Peters
The instructions are a bit intimidating indeed.
Love the choice of subject, taking a sear for this one too

Robert Podkoński Autor
Please, feel warmly welcomed Villiers, Ben M and Jan 🙂

Ben M
So photo 2, you grab a handful of toothpicks and you glue them in random locations?

Robert Podkoński Autor
LOL 😄 (actually, there are some tiny eyelets on the bottom of the pancake...)

Mark
I've got this in my wishlist. Robert, I thought I might've found a weird one that you'd missed. 😎 Foolish me! 😭 You are the undisputed King of weird and this will be another triumph. 👍

Neil
👀

Bruce Huxtable
You certainly have an eye for the unusual, Robert 👍 Watching with curiosity and wishing you a steady hand 🙂👍

Alex K
May I take a seat? Any room still left under the shadow of the umbrella?

Robert Podkoński Autor
Welcome, Gentlemen! Sure, Alex K, there is always a seat waiting for you. For Bruce, Mark and Neil, of course, there are seats, too 😉
@ Mark - of course there are many weird and unusual machines' kits that I do not own... mostly due to their high price and/or limited availability 😄

Maciej Bellos
Where do you get these contraptions (can't call it an aircraft, it has no wings 😄 )?

Robert Podkoński Autor
These just emerge here and there, Maciej 😉

Łukasz Gliński
It's a very tempting kit, isn't it? 😛

Robert Podkoński Autor
In a sense, yes, Łukasz... 😉

Dietmar Bogatzki
Strange plane, taking a seat....first version of the AWACS 😉

Robert Podkoński Autor
A little bit of progress here, Mates... lack of spare time lately 😭

John Hughes
Pity it's not in 1/24th. You would have a new coffee table when finished!😃

Robert Podkoński Autor
It still can serve as a beer glass coaster, John 😉

Boris B
Another fantastic project ! I'm in !

Robert Podkoński Autor
Welcome on board, Boris! 🙂

Peter G
Regarding Photo #2: LOLOLOLOL

Charlie Spitfire
a beer holder i am in

Robin (WhiteGlint)
The struts for its wing do seem to be quite some work. 🙂

Robert Podkoński Autor
Indeed, WhiteGlint, it is quite a tedious work and I am preparing them one after one (slowly...). Hope this will pay off, finally...

Charlie Spitfire
it would be cool if it was used as a beer holder

Ben M
Are you replacing the ones in the kit with your own?

Robert Podkoński Autor
Yes I do, Ben. The idea is to re-create them around the piece of soft wire. After glueing the wires' ends into the holes drilled in the "wing" and on the fuselage top it should be much easier to adjust their positions (I tested this method when assembling the undercarriage of 1/48 Dewoitine D. 510 from Dora Wings and it worked perfectly - save the fact that in the bigger scale you can easily drill into plastic ends and just install short pieces of wire there...)

Charlie Spitfire
i wonder how well this would fly in comparison with 2 halves on the side of a plane
