I like the wyvern very much, Ive been pondering that kit for some time but something always made me put it back on the shelf at the hobby store. Seeing yours I think I may take the plunge. What is the detail like in the cockpit?
Im now thinking of doing it with my classic airframes gannet

Your sabredog is very nice as well, thanks for sharing Image

Very nice - I particularly like the Wyvern, I've got that one in my stash at present, a beautiful kit - I also have the Eduard etched metal for it.

hi balders

i used xtra colour duraluminum all over , with the inner wing panels and tailplane leading edges a slightly darker shade of the same colour, achieved by adding a few drops of dark compass grey
the model was first primed with halfords appliance white, which gives a really good base coat for all finishes,
