| What, a full-size mock up Wayne? That would be good. Wish I had a pic of my Land Rover towing the RN Historic Flight Swordfish. Seven tons, over bumpy grass, with a (at the time) 17 year old Series Three, SWB Land Rover! No problem, the Navy were worried I'd pull the tail wheel off!

| Oh - thought you meant a full-size mock-up at the Expo! Saw a 1:1 Red Arrows Hawk at the IPMS UK Nationals once. Made of plastic and GRP, but fully fitted out, and looked real. The RAF used to cart a GRP 1:1 'model' Jaguar around for exhibitions too, that's why I thought you meant something similar! I'll shut up now and go and stand in the corner!

| IMG_2600.JPG IMG_2601.JPGHi guys here are some more pics of the swordfish this time with some paint on i would recommend that anybody building this kit paints the body first due to the nature of the way she goes together.BB  |

| Swordfish Aftermarket Is there word on anyone planning to release aftermarket parts for the 1/32 Swordfish? I would really like crew figures (no one seems to make seated ones in 1/32). What about photo-etch details? |
