    Interesting Ronald.
    The boat in my kit wears the number 156 and has sea grey deck and superstructure.
    So obviously a later version after lessons learned the hard way! .

    Thanks, the plane kit was missing a cockpit clear parts & and yes I should โ€œshoot-up the tailโ€

    Later versions of this had added deck guns too.

    Excellent job Ronald๐Ÿ‘
    Even if you had to sacrifice a Hurricane kit, or was it a Boulton Paul Defiant?
    The fighter with a sting in it's tail?
    The yellow deck etc shows the original early war months paint scheme.
    Which they rapidly learned made them easy and attractive targets for Stukas, JU87s and 88s.๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ’ฅโ˜น๏ธSo quickly changed to Sea grey!!

    Here is how I painted mine and created a downed pilot diorama.

    Hi Neil.
    Veery interestink!
    Got all of those boats in the original kits.
    Wonder if the reissues are improved in any way?
    Have started building the Vosper MTB and the SAR boat but stopped at the 'how do I paint this or convert to RC?' stage.
    The E Boat is still in the box but has been checked out for load capacity for a 'Plastic Magic' RC project. It's big enough, just๐Ÿ˜‰
    Cheers, Doug๐Ÿ˜Ž
    PS Thinking of having a bash at the Battle of Britain set, for old times sake.
    Had all of those aircraft (and then some) back when I was a kiddywinky (back when bananas were an exotic fruit and buses 'hung' from cables strung over the streets๐Ÿ˜) but they all got shot down over my back yard battleground๐Ÿ’ฅโ˜น๏ธ

    That's all right, Mr Ryan. My Morse is so rusty, I could be sending him dimensions on Playmate of the Month.
