Re: Unusual Navy aircraft
All beautiful builds. Superb. I especially like the Twotter, 190 and Culver.
All the best.

Re: Unusual Navy aircraft
It's great to see you can still do new things with a mainstream subject, especially when they're such good models too. Top work, Navy One.

Re: Unusual Navy aircraft
Excellent selection and those really are unusual Navy types. I bet a Starfighter would be a challenge to put down on a carrier deck
Doing - Tamiya 1/35th Universal Carrier.

Re: Unusual Navy aircraft
All good, I have to agree the 190 seems to suit that colour scheme (or is it the other way around?!). Like the helo too.
Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!!

There are no unusual Navy aircraft. It is the other services that have all the oddballs.
