New Model

Next model is S&P's Vought OS2U-2 Kingfisher (713) in glorious pre war colours.

Had a minor design issue with the main float that after advising Bruno about, he fixed in a flash because he is THAT man. Otherwise a sweet little model that really looks the part. I have his wheeled version that will be another feature of this thread down the track.

Credit to MichaelS for his Plucked Paintbrush TM rigging technique that I employed on the float brace wires.

Always liked the Kingfisher ever since I built the old Airfix plast as a kid.

Anyhoo, hope you like her.

Don Boose has said he will be giving us an insight into the service history of the full size soon.

Thanks again to Bruno Vanhecke for giving us your wonderful creations.

Long live 1/100!!
