richard shea Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 This is the new tool Sea King from Airfix using an aftermarket EAPS/SNIPS air intake filter, wire for the VOR/ILS aerials on the tail boom and 202 Sqn insignia from the spares box. Built as a HAR3 allocated to D flight based at RAF Lossiemouth around 2002-4. It's a great little kit but not without some accuracy issues that aren't difficult to correct.She is very clean with subtle and minimal weathering.A future build of the "Grey Whale" Falkland Islands version is in the queue which is also destined to become a 202 Sqn cab from the same period./media/tinymce_upload/2faf46b851dd22a7e8035b5e26b25dd9.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/621c192aae0898fc97d5caa613008db2.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/5ec60bb5ddf5ae05dbbf0ae7b2d0ca2f.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/ef690eb2a442b0483c74ad32007b6516.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/aeac60103e573f1097fdb4e6f5db6048.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Earth Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Very nicely done Richard ! And in an attractive scheme.I like the subtle panel line work you did there. It's a beauty !Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter s Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 That looks so close to the real thing its not true. Really nice work. I had first hand experience with the ones based at Boulmer (same flying duck insignia) and their's were often very dirty. To second Dark Earth you've got the panel lines just right.
