Nicely done with believable weathering! great job Frank

Beau boulot sur ce Harrier Stéphane! Beaucoup de chirurgie sur ce kit! J’aurais pensé que Kinetic aurait mieux traité ce sujet! Pour une maquette du 21 ieme siècle, c’est plutôt décevant! bonne chance pour la suite Frank

Nice start so far! I plan also to put my hands on it soon! Despite some lack of details in cockpit area, other zones seem been well treated. Franck

Original choice for paint scheme! I just love those Has bf-109. Well detailed & very easy to assemble! Looking forward to see it with paint on! Frank

Very well done! I have the same kit in my stash. I will follow your built with interest! Frank

Very Nice progress! Looks this kit is well detailed & fun to build! Frank

Very nice rendition! I’m currently building the same kit! I must admit that I’m enjoying it a lot despite the Aires cockpit set that just doesn’t cooperate. Nice detail level & pretty good fit overall. Congrats for the good work. The contra-prop look works for me...👌 Frank

Very nice work! The wood effect is splendid! Frank

Thanks Growler! Still much to to do in order to close up the fuselage but step by step... The Aires cockpit set does not helping me to gain time! Frank

Thanks a lot Thom! Holidays Christmas will allow me to pay more attention to the Beast! How’s yours coming along?😛 Frank

Hi guys, It`s been a while since my last update! Very busy on the house & the backyard! I came back on the Seafire two weeks ago & I must say that I'm progressing well! Especially on the Aires cockpit where fitting... sanding... trimming & screaming... were the main themes! 😥 I will come back into it at my next post! Small update for now, I`ve been working recently on the Barracuda tubular exhausts which are too small for Quickboost resin cowling. The set is originally supplied with "fishtail" type which is a bit bigger! No big deal, I just reduced the openings to get something more accurate. Still need some filling & sanding to be perfectly smooth! Besides, here are the last riveted elements for the plane. These are from CMK & they are very fine & well detailed. Cheers & see you soon in the cockpit! Happy Holidays from Canada! 🎅 Frank

Spectacular build Paul! very nice model with gorgeous paint work & weathering! Seems it was a lot of work involved but the final result is speechless...😱😱😱 Your built thread will inspire me to persevere with my « Bear »😊 First class finish! Frank

Wonderful finish! Look at those racy curves! very nice paint & finish Frank
