Here are some pics. The plane is called T30 Katana and the designer is Italian Pietro Terzi.

Uggh, I like the models, but that is one ugly bird there. The main thing that kills it is the landing gear and the inset elevators, other than that it wouldn't be so bad.

Looks very Zlin-ish.

The full size looks lllooooooooaaaaaaaadddddddddsssssssss better than any model, the only model that actually comes close to its full glory is the airworld one:

The funtanas and krill models etc. look crap in comparison

I'm not really sure what are you trying to point out.
I think there is a big difference when you compare models that are meant to look scale I mean in detail (rivets,cockpit,beacons,etc)vs proportion and models that are specificaly designed for IMAC. None of those models follow the aerodynamic lines of their full scale counterparts exactly to the dot. If you, for instance scale down full size Katana to 33% as it is, I don't think you'd be able to fit DA100 in the nose. And there is a lot of problems like this with few full scale designs. I don't think Krill's Katana look crap. Just have a look at this year's XFC. That says it all.
