Can a "Segment Nose" be made from Barbie's Glam Jet?

Post by sdcc73 » Thu Jul 21, 2011 2:17 am

Which jet's "Segment Nose" best matches the Barbie Glam Jet? The best I can think of is the C-130's nose. So I'm thinking of cutting / adding a few parts and maybe making it into the Blue Angels' cargo nose (see 2nd pic below). Its roughly 12 x 26 inches long. The overall shape is clearly not accurate to scale on all sorts of levels. Yet if you subtract its tail & wings, add a few small custom parts; I'm thinking this can be made into something - e.g. cargo jet's Segment Nose.
