This is a repaint of Rob Richardson's excellent de Havilland Sea Venom F.A.W. 21 to represent XG607 from 893 Sqdn., Fleet Air Arm when embarked on H.M.S Victorious in 1959. The boom fairings were coloured either grey or some other colour; I've chosen to paint them red because it looks cool but could also be blue...! Also I've deleted the 'dents' from the tip tanks on the bump map - think it looked way overdone. The underwing serials are about the right size, consistent with photos, but the texture mapping of the speed brakes, gear doors and flaps makes them look less than ideal.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.
