Newbie(kinda) Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Absolute BEAST! And especially like the last pic. Super modelling, as always. I'm still struggling to understand how Airfix missed the gunsight; what were they thinking?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wellsprop Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Fantastic! It's very impressive to see the difference in about a decade of aircraft design between the Sea Fury and Sea Fire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
