I've just finished uploading the rest of the related pictures to the Scorpion.
Once I had the Scorpions built, I decided they needed to have a field
delivery system and so the Condor was born:

The wings are variable position depending on flight conditions. It's also a
VTOL, if it wasn't obvious from some of the pictures. :)
Once the carried module/vehicle has been dropped off, the Condor has enough
armament to allow it to function in a ground support role.
The one area that will likely be revised would be the landing gear (no
comments, Muffin Head! <G>) but I need to get some more click hinges first.
I've also built a troop/cargo module for use when Scorpions aren't needed
for a mission:

Lastly, I've uploaded pictures of the Scorpion units loaded into the Condor.
They are in the Scorpion folder:

| (...) Oh very nice. I like the way the wings can angle (reminds me of the Nazi plane thing from Raiders of the Lost Ark) and I like the li'l gap in the front of the wing that forms an air intake for when your engines are in flight configuration.
