Silly Week 2011

 

A Furball is a large dog fight between groups of fighter aircraft.

I wasn’t really interested in these kits when they were first released, they looked cool but I didn’t know what to do with them. From time to time you see fights between sports team mascots and this was the inspiration for this diorama. The diorama was made from the Hasegawa 1:48 scale T-3 Jr. and Blue Impulse Jr. sets. Most of the figures were modified. The base is a square plastic box picture frame with generic airfield markings.

Thanks to ARC for Silly week. It is great to let your imagination run wild once in a while.
