NAVY870 Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) Fairey Firefly Mk.1 Z1905 of 731 Squadron Royal Navy East Haven 1944. The Grand Phoenix kit with Barracuda studios main wheels, prop and cannon spouts. Decals from the Special Hobby Mk.1 and a spot of scratch building some missing details. MM, WEM and Gunze jam used. Embarrassingly drawn out WIP here. Edited June 13, 2019 by NAVY870 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beazer Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I don’t have the gumption to do that kit so I’m just stealing the resin bits. Kudos for a great looking kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FAAFAN Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Nicely done. I did mine in the RCN scheme. I think I like the earlier Mk to the later Mk.4,5,6's Sleeker and more eye pleasing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
