NOBI released a 1/48 scale Sea Fury as a free Christmas gift in 2005. Very nice model of typical TPW quality. I've built a couple of them. I like his construction method. RAF livery; dark grey over light grey with invasion stripes. Not sure if it is on his site, but you can ask him; he's a very pleasant fellow.

I haven't built the "...Wasp" model either. (I suffer from fat finger complex.) I don't understand how "tabless" construction holds you back. It's simple and, I think, yeilds a much better model. I will generally remove the tabs to create level seams whenever practical. Try NOBI's models, he includes the tabs as separate parts.

Good luck, fellow paper-benders!
