Finally used the "fighter jet" cockpit after a decade+. Unfortunately it's too small to fit two figures plus chunky ejection seats, so I added a second cockpit for the navigator. Turns out the old Jedi Starfighter canopy flows quite nicely with this one, I really like how they work together.
Very fun build, once I'd figured out how I wanted the wings to be angled. Nothing spectacular in terms of build techniques beside that, but the cockpit sides and nose came out quite nicely too. My love for using minifig chairs not as chairs has persisted for decades now. At this point I just look at them and see air intakes.
Named for, and inspired by the Gloster Javelin from the 50s, but without the massive T-shaped tail, which looks absurd. Streamlined the intakes, added canards, and called it good.
Assorted missiles on the bottom for shooting flying saucers, as the other inspiration, in terms of colour scheme, was the Alien Conquest theme from 2011(!!!) Time flies. And so does this. There may or may not be more to come from this theme. And it may or may not be standing on my desk. Precariously.
Pictures to follow at some point.

The British Sunbeam-Talbot Company launched in July 1948 their first new post-war model. One could choose from a saloon or a 2-door convertible. Type 80 had a more modest engine size than the 90.
The addition of Talbot in the brand name was canceled in 1954.
This Sunbeam Alpine was the last convertible version of this series.
These two air-intakes on either side of the traditional grille appeared in 1951.

I had to get out of the house for a bit today, so after the first bit of rain came through I headed down towards the Lake Erie & Niagara River shoreline. The clouds were breaking for just about twenty minutes and constantly changing. I got one color image with my 75-200mm lens (200mm) and a B&W with the 24-120 (120mm). For my friends that aren't here in Buffalo, the silo looking building out on the water is the water intake for the Colonel Ward pumping station. The 1907 building takes in 125 million gallons of drinking water for Buffalo every day. Water rushes into the round brick and concrete building through grates and collects in a circular pool. The water drops 60 feet to a 12-foot diameter, mile-long concrete tunnel burrowed under the river bed. It ends up at the Col. Ward Pumping Station at the foot of Porter Avenue, where it is treated at the filtration plant and sent throughout the city. Atop the red roof is a guard light for passing ships. Around the exterior wall is a balcony embroidered by curving wrought iron. via 500px ift.tt/2hslUxi

"When I spread out my hand here today,
I catch no more than a ray
To feel of between thumb and fingers;
No lasting effect of it lingers.
There was one time and only the one
When dust really took in the sun;
And from that one intake of fire
All creatures still warmly suspire."
-Robert Frost
