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.

The model is the Warbirdsim FJ-1D, part of the "Mustang Tales" pack, but I've not seen that paint before. I have a different RN paint.
Yes that is the WBS Mustang Tales FJ-1D. It's a what-if that I'm working on. The paint is based off the Airfix FR.46/47 Seafire.
Still a few things to do (alpha and spec files) and then I will upload it. I am going to release 2 paints (same A/C) for both navy
models in the package, as one has bombs & rockets, the other is drop tanks.

Excellent Joe. Download finger at the ready
I've been toying with an idea to do similar for the WOP3 Spit but am being put off by the W3's rounded spinner.. early Seafires being based on the Mk5. We'll see. I've looked at the PK and that's as far as I've got!!

Don't let the spinner put you off, according to my 'Big Boys Book of the Spitfire' just about anything was possible.
And after all, for every 'Authentic' repaint in FS there are dozens of 'Fictional' examples.
At least the ugly Rotol prop (as worn by some Hurricanes) seems to have been overlooked for Spitfires!
I built a fair number of Seafires back when I was a member of IPMS and hacking up those grossly inaccurate Airfix 1:48 Spitfires became second nature.
My favourite Seafire, the LF.Mk.III in BPF colours.
