Doccur Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Build completed as part of the Film, Fictional and Speculative GB: Here we have the old Matchbox Skyraider built as an aircraft of the Fleet Air Arm during the Suez crisis. I rescribed the whole thing and brush painted it with Xtracrylix. Decals used were the Berna Decals set for a Westland Wyvern. Markings are from an aircraft of 827 NAS based aboard HMS Eagle. Please see WIP for more back story and build details: Cheers, Ash 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ad-4N Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Has to be fresh out of the paint shop. No exhaust, no gallons of oil leaking on the centerline fuel tank. 😋 Well done, my man. Excellent imagery and craftsman ship. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
