zigster Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 You're welcomed Sir! When I saw it first time, I thought of a pregnant whale. Like Avenger, it is still in my mind. Your kit is good, but I'm not into doing one for my own 😜 Zig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoftScience Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 An exemplary display of patience. Most CA kits make me want to smash them with a hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 A beautiful build of a not-quite-so-beautiful plane! Perhaps its aptitude for multiple roles is part of the reason for the odd looks, eh? Anyway, that is a superbly built and finished model! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby No Mac Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 What a beast. I saw the one at Newark Air Museum last year and it's quite striking how big these birds really are when you stand next to them. Terrific job with a tricky kit and an excellent finish. I might even be tempted to try and build the Sword Gannet... one day! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Quack Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 A beauty. I have a definite soft spot for these Function-Dictates-Form airframes. I'd love a Gannet but don't see one in 1/48 these days. Lovely build and finish, especially the tricky curved delineation of the main colours - difficult to get a smooth, even curve. Masterful.
