moaning dolphin Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Good day all! Here is my take on the Classic Airframes Westland Wyvern. She is representing 827 NAS on HMS Eagle. Built straight from the box with only a couple of wire aerials added as an extra. I airbrushed with Model Master Acrylics with a matt coating and wash from my own concoction with a bit of pastel weathering. Overall I am quite happy with the effort, no real headaches or disasters. Next up for the bench is to finish the CA Attacker to go with the collection. Apologies for the poor picture quality! I do like the sleek lines of the nose! And here she is nestling into the rest of my growing Fleet Air Arm collection Cheers now Bob 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Not something one sees everyday. Like the stains aft of the drainage tubes, er, exhausts. (Nice looking Austrian Airbus below too ) Cheers, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heloman1 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Congratulations Bob, she looks the part, the Wyvern wasn't the worlds best looking torpedo bomber but it was the worlds fist tubine powered. Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Great model! I think that the Wyvern manages to look intimidating and sexy at the same time – a look very well captured here. Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
