Hello,
I started this in 2015 but it was until 2021 it was finished. Modified Hot Wheels Salt Shaker.
Scratch built canopy, rear wing with supports and parachute. Machined parachute tube. Paint is 1956 Chevrolet Nassau blue (one of the many colors with that name). Gotta have a Chevy connection somewhere







and the spoiler picture

Excellent set of pictures! Without reading your comments or seeing the "spoiler" I would have taken it for the real thing.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice job on the model.

Makes me think we should have a model thread.

About a month ago at one of the parks I frequent for birding, I met a person with a model of a French chateau that he was setting in a small stream with a big rock behind it to simulate mountains.

I bet with COVID lockdowns there are a lot of people building models these days
