I decided to take a bunch of junk Fang 2 parts and build them into something. I came up with the idea of turning it into a Plane. I closed in the cockpit area a bit more and reshaped the tail and added a third wing. I also cut out all the ugly clips that hold the body together. Image

I could be really off base here as i'm not a gamer nor very familiar with the game but ...this looks like a fun addition to the Fortnite (?) figure line. The aesthetics really strike me as something that would come from that line.

Sensational work as always.

I'm going to assume that the upper missiles are launched vertically and the lower missiles are launched horizontally first before ignition to clear the props. Otherwise, I foresee a lot of broken prop blades.

Nice paint apps and I do like the bigger windscreen. Seems it would stand up to more incoming fire front on...

If I had a do over I think I’d lose those top missiles altogether, I actually might think of a way to cut the pegs off without having to repaint everything. Hasbro over loaded the Fang 2 with missiles. I removed the side ones and kept the ones on the wings. The top ones bug me a bit though lol
