Ivan Ivanovich Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) When it comes to carrier-based aircraft, the Wyvern is most definitely among those types that intrigued me the most - brutish British turboprop eleganza. And yes, I'd really love to see an all-new 32nd scale injection-moulded kit of this "brutie". Dreams are ten a penny.... 1/48th scale Trumpeter Wyvern S.4, 831 Naval Air Squadron, HMS Ark Royal Except for a resin NeOmega Martin Baker Mk.2B ejection seat built straight out of the box. Paints used: Gunze Aqueous Hobby Color, satin topcoat: 60/40 mix of Floquil Polly Scale Flat and Pledge/Future. Thanks for looking!

Tony C Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Looks great, one of my favourite aircraft and one of Trumpeters better kits! Ivan Ivanovich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 That's truly superb. HpH have stated their intention to produce a 1/32 kit. Tony C, Rick Griewski and Ivan Ivanovich 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorbenD Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Top job on one of the FFA’s classics - I too dream of one in 1/32 Torben Ivan Ivanovich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I'd most certainly buy one on the spot. For sure a worthy companion for my (yet to be built) Fisher Sea Fury. 2020 maybe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Holy smokes, that looks good! Did it really fly? It looks so weird... Like some crazy WIF. This is like another step into funky British designs. Much more appealing than the Gannet. Gaz Ivan Ivanovich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
