Trumpeter 1/48 Supermarine Seafang F.MK.32
A straight out of the box build except for Tape Belts and the serials and roundels were masked and painted as Trumpeter had them a tad on the fictitious side.
Primed with Tamiya Neutral Grey.
Painted with Colourcoats Extra Dark Sea Grey, Sky S Type, FAA/RAF Yellow, Roundel Red, Roundel Blue and Dark Admiralty Grey, Tamiya Flat White, Flat Aluminium, Nato Black and Rubber Black, Panzer Aces Light Rust and Yellowish Rust.
Washed with Flory Dark Dirt, Citadel Nuln Oil, Seraphim Sepia and Agrax EarthShade.
Oils used were Windsor & Newton and Abteilung 502.
Finished with Windsor & Newton Satin Varnish.
Thanks for looking,
Cheers,
Alistair
Nice work on the Seafang Al, did you manage to make the props contra rotate, I gave up and glued them up
Thanks very much.
I looked at the bits and thought stuff that it's going into a display cabinet.
So the props were just glued in.
Nice work! That's a dangerous-looking aircraft...
Thanks Greg.
Another superb result, Alistair! A not often seen subject, it really makes an impact.
Well done!
Many Thanks Spiros.
Pretty much a prototype as the type was never commissioned
great unusual build!
Thanks so much
Excellent build indeed, Alistrair @alistairfgauld
To be honest, I never heard about this aircraft but it looks very elegant.
Thanks John,
It was Supermarine's last extension of the Spitfire but was never sold to anyone.
This one did some deck landing trials but that was it.
I’d never heard of this before either, Alastair, but you’ve made a great job of it, it looks terrific.
Many thanks
Great looking Seafang, nicely done!
Thanks very much.
Looks great Alistair. Now you'll have to do a Spiteful!
