DaveyGair Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Here's my attempt at Sword's 1/72nd kit that I did over on the 'Carriers Ahoy!' GB if you fancy looking at the build thread. A nicely detailed kit, it requires a bit more 'proper modelling' than I had patience for this time! The wing fitting and canopy were the main problem areas for me, and I still managed to misalign the canopy at the rear (it is narrower than the fuselage). The Techmod decals frequently broke and I ended up not using the stencilling because of this. Paints were Vallejo ModelAir. Varnish was Alclad II Gloss (sprays nicely out the bottle) and Vallejo Satin. Lightly weathered and a 7 thou E guitar string aerial. Be kind 🙂 Davey. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Very nice build, well done! The type has always intrigued me, as the finely-balanced undercarriage and (comparatively) petite nature of the airframe don't automatically promote it for carrier operations. Well, not to my mind anyway. Nice model though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
