Westland Wyvern 1/48

[No.1]

Something rare and interesting, to start this year

[Second Air Force]

I love the Wyvern!! Good success on this one, mate.

I built a vacuform Wyvern on commission in the early nineties and so became very fond of the airplane. Westland built a true monster, almost like a turboprop P-47 that could land on an aircraft carrier!

What is refreshing is that most of part need sanding to fit into place... I miss this much!! All right, I like this modern kit developed with 3D technology but it look like my heart live still in early '70

I agree, it is sometimes fun to build one of these Classic Airframes kits. The extra fitting takes me back to my earlier days, too!!

Thanks friends despite fact that every single instrument was placed one by one, it is released so fast so wings join the fuselage

Problem associated with canopy. Sample I wanted to do at first glance, have all clear canopy, while kit include only one type, with metal cover rear part. So I will do another sample, not this one.
