1/32 Trumpeter Fairey Swordfish

[Porsche]

My recently completed Swordfish. Built pretty much out of the box but with some Eduard pe to augment the kit parts. I had great difficulty trying to use the kit's rigging and gave up in the end and resorted to using steel wire. I decided quite early into the build that I would display the model with the wings folded, primarily to save space.

Wonderful, always a treat to see a Swordfish, and...

That is grand, nicely finished and weathered, it looks just right to me.

That is one of the best exhaust collectors I've ever seen in model form and makes the model stand out for me.

 

Great job

Hello Kevin,

 

What a beautiful entry to LSP with your superbly  weathered Swordfish. 

You have done an EXCELLENT  job and like the exquisitely built model. Like the "chocs" ..adds a bit of authentication  to it.

Photos  are sharp too.

Well Done.

 

Many thanks MARU5137, much appreciated!
