Inspiring artwork that led to the Bastang II

Reproduced here with kind permission of the original artist.

 

The P-82 profiles on the left hand side were the initial spark that led to my "Bastang II" kitbashing - originally, the discussion circled around a "halved" P-82 with 2 engines and a conventional layout.

 

But when I started working, I thought about taking this concept further, and so I modded a conventional P-51 so far that it not only carried two wing-mounted engines, but also a tricycle landing gear, a crew of three and some other mods.

 

Tophe was so kind to create another profile of this result, including further variations (profiles on the right hand side).
