Bob_C Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 OK, I think I'm finished. AIRFIX 1:72 FAIREY SWORDFISH MK1 FLOATPLANE I've thoroughly enjoyed this group build and thanks to all who have commented. This Airfix kit is excellent and I'd definitely recommend it. (except for the lack of a rigging diagram) Oh, and by the way, the trick with the baking powder and CA seems to work! Bob I've posted some more images in the completed builds thread. I hope you can see them OK. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franz75 Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 WOW, that was fast, nice Swordfish. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courageous Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Now look at that, she looks rather neat. If I can say anything, IMHO I think she's a little 'flat' and needs more of a satin look. Besides that... Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pheonix Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 My that was quick! However the model just shouts quality (I mean the build not the kit) and an interesting presentation with one wing folded. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrlx Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Hi Bob! Congrats for an excellent build! By the way, you are the first participant in the GB to finish! You still have plenty of time for another build Cheers Jaime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc72 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Congratulations, she looks great! I must admit I was at first sceptical whether the floatplane version actually could carry a torpedo, but a quick google search brought up enough evidence to show that it could indeed.
