Flying Stations TSR2

[peterwatkins2]

Better known as the Fairey Swordfish! Have been working on 4096 textures for this freeware model, as I could not find any done by anyone else!

A few more silver ones!

Good lord man.. I nearly fainted!!!

I asked a question over there (FlyingStations) so long ago, I've forgotten now but it never got answered. It was that I was surprised they'd not painted the RNHF examples
EDIT: even more subtle.. A2A and L2!!

Camo examples. Have uploaded all paints to FlightSim.com and should be available tomorrow.

Ha Ha Dave. It was A2A that got me interested in the Swordfish and I had intended to paint her. I am not convinced of the accuracy of the colour scheme though, having done a fair bit of research. LS326 though has at last been painted in the correct scheme so remains a possibility.
Have to stop for a while though - have a Dragon to catch up with!

cheers, Peter

Woo hoo! I was hoping the Dragon would find its way onto your to-do list Peter.

Hahahaha.. excellent Peter That paint of AJVH was a shock. I'd no idea one of these ever found it's way onto the civil register. This'll certainly make 'low n slow' a bit more interesting

Great to see these skins for the Swordfish - thank you, Peter.

Lovely work, Peter, as always.

I think LS326 was registered post-war as G-AJVH by Fairey, and later passed to the FAA Museum, possibly when the spares ran out or maintaining it became too expensive. No doubt someone can confirm or correct this.
