1:48 Airfix Hawker Sea Fury FB.11

[shortCummins]

Here’s my effort of Arifix’s 1:48 Hawker Sea Fury.
I used Montex masks for the insignia and Eduard seat belts, other than that she’s OOB.


















Don’t get me wrong this is a good kit however, I think that with a little more attention to detail Airfix could have made it a GREAT kit, one to rival Tamiya or Eduard, I know neither of these make a Sea Fury. If you want to build a Sea Fury you’ll not go far wrong with this kit, go for the “later” export version as I believe that the “short-shot” issues had been eliminated for that version.


until next time
as always, any suggestions, criticisms or comments will be gratefully received.

Lovely work as always John, that's definitely got that "well used" look that FAA aircraft acquired
