Brickshipyard Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 I am not sure why no one has commented on this MOC, but I'll go ahead and say it's very cool! I am not familiar with the real source material, but I can Republic ARC-170 vibes especially in the nose area to middle area. The rear landing gear looks a little strange at those angles, but I understand those were the attachment points with the wings. What is behind the storage doors, or is that how the pilots enter/exit?

The F-101 Voodoo is/was a Cold War USAF and RCAF fighter jet. So the OP has reimagined that as a Rebel fighter, essentially. Nice! Quote

I apologize for not responding - I forgot I had even posted this. The storage doors are just for entry. Quote
Brickshipyard Posted October 28, 2022 Posted October 28, 2022 No worries, it's been a busy fall season! Ahhh ok, the storage doors are an entry way to the cockpit. Also thank you dvw2 for explaining the source material aircraft. Quote
cycbuild Posted October 29, 2022 Posted October 29, 2022 @LordsofMedieval Thanks for sharing your MOC! Everything looks great, from the nose to the tail design. And even better, you've reimagined a classic warplane without my brain wanting to explode, à la https://www.flickr.com/photos/96562987@N03/52166124345 @Brickshipyard Re: Landing Gear - Is space metal heavier than aircraft aluminum..? Wide-body aircraft sometimes have rear landing gear retract and rest at an angle. (Out-toeing on a Boeing haha) Quote
TheRealDabid Posted October 31, 2022 Posted October 31, 2022 Really cool. Love the approach and creativity. Cheers Quote
