Silver Fox Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 This is the excellent Airfix 1/48th scale PR19 finished as a machine from 541 Squadron at Benson in 1950 Very much OOB with just a wire whip aerial and a set of etched seat straps. I used the gimmicky hood over rear glazing because I managed to screw up the original hood, and I'm actually impressed with it. It is way too thick but does the job. All in all a stress free and fun build. Thanks for looking. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Fox Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 Forgot to say that the main decals are Xtradecals though I used the Roundels and fin flash from the kit along with the stencilling. The don't walk lines are missing from the Xtradecal and only suitable for the Swedish option in the kit, which is correct for the kit options. I useda spare set from my Spit XII/Seafire 17 to Seafire 15 conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
