corsaircorp Posted April 16, 2024 Posted April 16, 2024 Hello Gents.... I'll add some pics later.... Since 3rd day of gales.... I took some pics and saw the kit moving with the wind.... Stressful experience.... So family pics will come later.... Sorry about that..... In Oz country I sayyyyy..... That will maybe please @Dunny.... NAS Nowra in 1953, if it is an improved Airfix kit, the decals came from the Errormaster sheet 48-703 724 NAS Paints are ye good old Humbrol... It was a looong time that I didn't used glycero paints.... Seemingly, it has been an one of a kind paint scheme used for airshows I was tempted by another EDSG:Sky scheme in Korea but I already have a FAA one.... And another FAA one with that same paint scheme.... Interior has been improved with scratchbuild parts and a quickboost gun sight.... More pics will come when the weather will permit it.... For the one interested by the Sea Fury factory, here below it is Comments are welcome, banters are mandatory.... See you soon. Sincerely. CC 44 1
CJP Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 (edited) Hi CC - your Sea Fury looks very nice in the Oxford blue scheme - here are a couple of photos I took in February 1970 at Bankstown Airport NSW - It would be challenging to paint it looking very weathered like this - the red Sea Fury was on the civilian register as VH-BOU (ex WH588/114) at that time & both were sold to USA at some years later. They were both ex RAN aircraft WH589/115 & WH588/114. above photo found on a Google search. Chris Edited April 19, 2024 by CJP text 8 1
Dunny Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 You were right CC - that does please me! Lovely build and such an attractive scheme, Cheers, Roger 1
Pete in Lincs Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 That is beautiful CC. I think for this you should be released from the naughty corner! 2

Keeff Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 Veeeeery nice CC! 👌 I have to ask if we're ready for you to be let out of the naughty corner .... 🤔🤣 Keith 😁 3
Pete in Lincs Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 You may have a point. Okay, we'll see how the next ten models turn out and then make a decision 3
Toryu Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 Great finish, Alain, on this handsome aircraft - actually one of the very few British fighters that attract me (don't tell anybody at Britmodeller!). 3
Wlad Posted April 17, 2024 Posted April 17, 2024 Nice Sea Fury CC. Good to see something coming out of your assembly lines. Cheers, Wlad 1

georgeusa Posted April 18, 2024 Posted April 18, 2024 The blue Sea Fury is done just great. Then you gave a bonus of the beautifully built and finished Spitfire and the loaded Fury. All are really nicely done. Thanks for sharing. 1 1
2996 Victor Posted April 18, 2024 Posted April 18, 2024 That's a splendid Spitfire - I do like that scheme! Two gorgeous builds. 1

The only chance you have of getting out of the Naughty Corner is by opening up a portal to another dimension; and then you would probably find Mme CC waiting for you with a Naughty Corner of her own devising. Sill want to escape? No? I thought not! Cynical of Mars 👽 4
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted April 18, 2024 Posted April 18, 2024 Beautiful Cousin, it’s the Scheme I want to do. 1 1
kapam Posted April 20, 2024 Posted April 20, 2024 Really nice Sea Fury! I agree it looks particularly impressive in the deep blue colour. Certainly a very imposing looking aircraft. 👏👏👏 1
