Dear All

Academy kit is wonderfull, no putty used!

clear prop kit is a bit over-engineered, and needs putty , putty everywhere...

I totally agree with you about the F-8 - it is a wonderful kit, love it.  Did you do the wing fold yourself or is it the conversion set?

 

That is one fine looking little dio, they look great together.  I have got fond memories of the old Airfix Seasprite.

The Crusader is beautiful and for all the problems the Clear Prop kit gave you the end result is very impressive looking. You've created a wonderful diorama and I'm quite impressed.
