Our favourite Japanese model maker has the S.A.4 Sperrin on show at "all nodes".
I can fly now with my fantastic new PC

He's a little tinker (as my ol' gran used to say)!!
As per usual the FDE is going to need a good tweak, but the basic shape is fine. Looks like we might have a canvas for a few more of those "What If...." schemes.

Somebody please correct me if I am wrong - is that the twin Gyron testbed that he has modelled?

Oh well, no worries, just have to allow for a bit of artistic licence on the repaints I guess.

I'm quite pleased in a way... afterall it's more than just a replication of the AlphaSim model

Ummm I suppose you can now see why I asked for information on the Sperrin?
Thanks to everyone's generous input, this is the result. But not being a Sperrin expert and reading of your initial posts, has a mistake been made?
I'm sure I could ask Kazunori to amend if necessary.
Best wishes to all,
Martin
Next time I ask for something be very very wary

Well Martin, If you have the ear of Mr. Ito and he like making the more obscure, I'd love a shorts SC.1
