Re: The Witty Sea Fury is here!!

I agree that it is a sharp looking livery though. Here are some of the pics from merit-intl website.

I like the looks of that navy blue Sea Fury.

Re: The Witty Sea Fury is here!!

The Mule just sent mine out today, so I should have it soon.
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

Seafury With Typhoon Pictures

I got my Witty Hawker Seafury FB.11 today and love it.
It's close to the same size as the IXO Typhoon.
It's a very nice looking Seafury too and comes with a stand.
Enjoy the pics.

Talking Re: Seafury With Typhoon Pictures

Did you see who was in the cockpit of the Fury? It is Velma from Scooby-Doo! Love that green turtle neck sweater girl!

Re: The Witty Sea Fury is here!!

Looked in Janes Historic Military Historic Aircraft Recognition Guide.Here is some of what is written.The Fury's first flight is dated Sept. 1st. 1944. The naval variation was developed by Boulton Paul. Hefty orders were cancelled in the wake of VE-Day. The FAA remained commited to the Sea Fury variant and purchased 50 F10s and 615 FB...FB11 saw much action in Korea with British,Australian and Canadian Fleets. Surviving Airworthy Variant(s) are Fury FB10 Sea Furies FB11, FB50,T20S and TT20. I hope this info will assist. Swoop

Re: The Witty Sea Fury is here!!

Just got my Sea Fury from Fm (red spinner) and must say it is a wonderful piece. High quality is the 1st impression. Very nice detailed stencil work, clean lines and paint finish. Even the pitot is metal and very sturdy. Prop markings are the very best I've ever seen on a 1/72 scale model. Very heavy metal makes up this beast! A must have.
