red Dog Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) Hello gents, My name is Olivier from Belgium. I'm a long time lurker on LSP as I do mainly 1/32 models but never actually posted a model. I decided to post my first after completing my first Fisher model: the Sea Fury. I read a lot of topics on this very forum while building this so many thanks to all previous LSP Sea fury builders, it was very helpful. The model is mostly OOB save for minor modifications around the Hook bump and scrath of the engine innards as some cover behind the exhaust plates were omitted and I wanted to detail the inside. Paints used were acrylic gunze H71&H72 for the top surfaces and Vallejo azure blue for the undersurfaces. I traded the fisher decals for some hobbycraft's desert fighter. Thanks for looking, any critic more than welcome.

oddball1973 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Nice paint job ( i think a few of the iraqi Sea furies got bought up and restored in the 1970's /80's) by private companies?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red Dog Posted October 10, 2012 Author Share Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) Wow, many thanks for the warm welcome gents. My models are usually posted on different website so you might have seen a few of them lurking on ARC, Europeanmodeller or even Z5. Anyway, here are a few selected picture of the latest 1/32 EF2000B Trumpeter 1/32 Revell 1/32 Eurofighter F16A MLU Orange Jumper 1/32 (Academy Sufa) Su27 Trumpeter 1/32 Harrier GR3 Airfix 1/24 TA-4J 1/32 Hasegawa Some older: OA-4M 1/32 Hasegawa F-104G 1/32 Hasgawa Some newer F/A-18C Golden Dragon 1/32 Academy - WIP on LSP B-25J Maid in the shade 1/32 HK Models (lights & motors) - WIP on LSP A6 & A7 AAR 1/32 Trumpeter: WIP on LSP Warbird Restored Spitfire Mk XVI SL761 1/32 Tamiya - WIP on LSP Spitfire MkIX conversion from MkVb 1/24 Airfix - WIP on LSP The rest in 1/48, sorry As you can see, I'm more a jet guy than a prop head. But I have a few soft spots in warbirds too. The sea fury is one of them Again many thanks for the warm welcome, makes me wonder why it took me so long Cheers Olivier Edited September 19, 2020 by red Dog added latest model for full collection Greg W, Alain Gadbois, alain11 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitey Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) That is one hellofa beautiful Fury Olivier. It's nice to see one built up as a Fury and not the Sea Fury. Those Baghdad Furies are still flying all around the world. I might even be tempted to get one and follow your lead and make it as a Fury. I love the other models too, especially the EF2000s. Might even get me motivated in the desert. Edited October 10, 2012 by Whitey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
