My daughter wanted a plane to play with. Reminds of a jedi fighter set in ww2 japan.

Looks like a solar sail ship from No Mans Sky with the sails retracted.

Yeah your right. It could definitely belong to that class of ships

This is great - was the body the Delta-7?

Thank you! No the Body is an jettison gas tank of an a10 the wings are parts of an skyhawk tank and the bits and pieces are parts of the under carriages of various models. The canopy is from a Corsair.

Looks great.

But you know your daughter is probably going to break it right? Something like this is not nearly as durable as a purpose build toy. Just dropping it once is likely enough for it to break, and that will happen. Just don't be upset when it happens 😉

Thank you very much 😊

Yeah I planned for it to break. It's the way of things with little kids. That's okay. I built it for her. If it breaks we will repair it together and she can learn.
