No.118 Fairey Sea Fox, wheel version

Here's my latest presentation, No.118, in this series. Thanks to Gerry for his Fairey Seafox 1/400 which I modified to 1/200 wheel version instead of floats. Cockpit with pilot and navigator seats, spinning prop and rigging are add-ons. One thing though about the prop is that the original appears to be a bit too small for such a large airplane. So I enlarged it by 150% as you can see in the comparison picture. The wing supporting struts may appear a bit too tall when I compare them with 3-view pictures on the web, but I can live with that. Perhaps, perhaps may I repeat, in a future build thread about float planes, I'll trim them short a bit to see how it will look.
