Hi all and first finish of this year for me., Sword's 1/72 Sikorsky S-43 'Baby Clipper' in US Navy service for the "WW2 Twins GB". The build thread is here but to recap: Kit: Sword Sikorsky S-43/JRS-1 SW72019 Build: Fuselage & wings were part-started by another modeller - the kit was finished by me OOB Paints: Tamiya acrylics sprayed. Johnshon's Klear. Decals: BuNo1063/1-J-1 from Navy Squadron VJ-1, Pearl Harbour survvor. Decals are from Eduard release of this kit (thank you Toby) Extras: Wire and sprue for rigging. Krystal Klear for all the cabin windows. Notes: Too many to mention! One of those kits where nothing really fits together. Approach with a lot of caution! Thanks for looking, take care and happy modelling.

Thanks to the GB hosts, I'm in with this one which was gifted to me when the previous modeller who started building it became ill and was unable to continue.

Thanks for looking, good luck with your builds! Cheers, Dermot
