So here it is, this Sea Dart. I guess the kit confirms the brands reputation.
But it turned out very well and it took you only 4 days for a Mach2 kit! Respect ?
That cockpit / canopy section was a dog to build…

Wow - that is a kit that almost requires a scratch-builder's effort. Good job.

Impressive, congrats! (Like I've said - I know this kit very well...and THAT is THE ACHIEVEMENT to turn it into such a fine miniature)... Let's only hope that some of new manufacturers will provide us with state-of-the-art kit of this fantastic plane) The only one flying boat that flew over Mach 1!

We definitely need a medal functionality on scalemates for such cases 😄 Exquisite work! 👍

Thanks everyone! I'm glad to finally share some of my builds, and happy you like them. But I am no miracle worker- my MACH2 Arado Ar232 has been on hold for 10+ YEARS so far while I dig up the courage for a scratchbuilt cockpit and all those wheels. And then there's an engine on the Bloch 131 going off at an odd angle...

Wow... really well done the kit.
Is also still in my warehouse and I thought that I build in the near future times... have now a few super template photos with your model.
