A J Rimmer Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Now that's lovely. I do like the early dark blue Seaking scheme. It looked so good in that colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valhalla Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 That's fantastic Andy looks great. Well done. The box will protect and keep it dust free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour de Airfix Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 That’s fantastic. I built one of these for a good friend of mine who was an electronics engineer on 50 & 55 in 1982. I then had to build 2 more for myself. I painted up No. 50 as it looked as it sailed off to Falklands and then after its markings were blacked out or overpainted for when it went into action. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour de Airfix Posted September 3 Share Posted September 3 Wow that’s fabulous. I think still have some early 824 NAS Ark Royal decals in my stash. You’ve started me thinking. 🤔 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s looking really nice Andy, I’m so tempted to build a Seaking but just trying to choose which one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
