trumpeter Son of Seafire - Supermarine Seafang F.32
Something a bit different, the Seafang, the planned replacement for the Seafire - which due to the Jet Age, became an interim (and mostly) forgotten foot note in British Naval aviation history.
Then Trumpeter created a kit of it (along with the Spiteful).
I've had it my stash for a while and I wanted a quick build..
Box Art
What's in the box..
The decals came back to haunt me.
The build..
As with most Trumpeter kits, the fit is pretty good, just a few annoying bits (more on that later).
First muck up- quoting the wrong shade of Sea Grey - Dark instead of Extra Dark.
Soon rectified.
Second the out of register and under scale roundels..
Spares from one of my Eduard kits came to the rescue fortunately..
If the wings and undercarriage look familiar - they were used on the Attacker.
Into weathering,,
All finished.
Onwards and upwards to the next build..
