Description

For no real reason other than to show it off some more and give you a sense of scale with a photoshoped Scott Tracy.

She looks long but she's actually about the same size as the original. I decided to make her look more like a missile in 'rocket' mode and to fiddle with the landing gear so that it didn't come out of the wings. Never thought that was particularly sensible...

Everything else was just streamlining. I would have made some of the rear thrusters rotatable 'VTOL' engines, like the movie version, but I didn't think of it in time and I rather like the way it looks anyway.

Just to make things absolutely clear, I do not own Thunderbirds, International Rescue, their logo, designs, names etc - ITV do. This is entirely done for fun, with no profit to me or anyone else. I say this in more detail than usual mainly because I've borrowed the IR logo from Google to make this look more 'official'.

In the front elevation you can see a similarity to the x-15! Very good design!.
