Cheers for the info Terry.

Spending this evening gathering data and images for those unclear bits like wheels, wells, undercarriage, etc...trying to convince the jury in my head.

Hi Stuart,

 

You are very welcome.

I know the feeling. Lots of facts/ideas/views/opinions/information coming inbound and you have to make a decision!

 

Good luck with that.

 

The Fury is looking very good.

Sorry for the lack of an update, garden stuff turned into the priority :shrug:

All stickers on. Fiddly bits on albeit that due to the 'limited-run' instructions, it was 'best effort'. The front wheel for '101' was replaced for an F86 type. After lots of debating, I kept the wheel wells an interior green, undercarriage and doors Gloss Sea Blue and wheels aluminium.

 

Thanks for following and looking.

Stuart,

 

For what it's worth, the wheel bays, doors, struts and wheels of the Naval Air Museum's FJ-1  are finished the same way that you did your model; I checked the photos I took of it to make sure. BTW, a very nice job on your Fury!

Mike
