Nice Swordfish and Seafox, I really must learn how to rig.

[ShaunW]

It is a good paint scheme and the rigging is now bringing it to life.

I have not yet found a photo of RNAS Arbroath's Swordfish only side profile drawings, all the drawings I have see show the a/c with the per-war size red in the roundels, but I don't think it looks right and why would they go to the bother of re-painting the a/c and not put the post war larger red?

So I have gone with my gut feeling and used a slightly bigger red spot than those on the drawings.

Update I just realised I'm a complete numpty the post war red should be the smaller size the drawings are correct and I was wrong, time to see if I can get the red dots off.

Good going, Splash!

Martin can I have a 24hour extension ?

I have had a glitch with the home made decals on one side, so I want to let the side I have done set over night before I try again, plus I have minor parts to paint like the exhaust and rear wheel.

Cheers Martin.

I think I can call this finished as all it needs is the 912 added to the Port side.
