These are pictures
of my Sea Fury, using the Hobbycraft kit with Airwaves photo-etched details,
Aeroclub model propeller blades and Eagle Strike decals.

The Hobbycraft kit is easy to build, but the decals where really bad. Such as
the Canadian leaf in the roundel looks like more three spots than a maple leaf.
Airwaves adds a bit in the model, especially in the cockpit, but you cannot see
the front control panel which is really deep inside the cockpit. Otherwise, it's
a good value to the final look of the model. I also used white metal prop blades
because the shape are more accurate than the plastic blades provided in the
Hobbycraft kit. Eagle Strike decals are simply excellent.
