Silver Fox Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 As a bit of a palette cleanser, following my Blenheim and to get something new for the SIG stand at Telford, I put this little beast together. It is the Mark 1 Model 1/144th scale kit of the workhorse of the RNZAF from the early fifties to the early seventies. It is a simple kit as befits it size buy has plenty of detail. I used the decals I have had printed for SIG members , which come on a sheet on both 1/72nd and 1/144th scale and cover both 75 and 14 Squadrons with lots of appropriate serials. The only thing missing are the roundel and fin flashes that already provided in most kits. All the sheet provides are the silver ferns to save cost. I need to find a replacement for the fin flash lost as although there are two complete kits in the box my kit decal sheet has only one set of D type fin flashes. Thanks for looking. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Quack Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 Great result for something so small. My visual acuity could never cope with that. Don't drop it `cos the entire model is at serious risk from the carpet monster! Q 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met up with Francis and Dave Stewart at Elvington on Thursday, so that's another one re-done. Down to Coventry on Sunday to do that area for a few days and as I'm staying just up the road, a re-visit to the MAM at Baginton. See you next weekend mate.
