it kinda has a 3d look to it

Łukasz Gliński
Soviet printing, so its technology must've been close to litography😉

Skyhiker
The printing is just out of register. I'm surprised the decals are not. The plane looks like a rigging nightmare. Cool though.

Nicolas
Nice Project, I'm watching.

Rando
Bring on the crazy conversions, definitely want to see this!

Moreno Baruffini
Me too!!! Following,!

Nicolas, Rando & Moreno Baruffini, welcome to the project!

Moreno Baruffini
Thanks to you! Really a great start!

Rando
Had no idea that they made a carrier borne Mosquito til I saw this project, lots of interesting and unique features to include here

J35J
@Rando - Thanks for your intrest, indeed it is a quite unique bird.
Derived from the Mosquito the Sea Mosquito was intended to be used aboard the Fleet Air Arm's aircraft carriers. During its time in service it would only be used by land based squadrons. Two variants of the de Havilland Sea Mosquito were built and only 67 was produced.

Neil
Very interesting project. Looking good J35J. Following 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Joining the party 👍 very nice job so far

J35J
Thanks Neil & Łukasz Gliński for your comments.

Andy Ball
well, this version I haven't heard of, so I'll crane my neck over yours...

Łukasz Gliński
Seems quite a logical idea - staying afloat in case of ditching into the sea 😄

Bernd Grün
Very nice project. It turns out very well. 👍 Didn't know anything about Sea Mosquitos.

J35J
Thanks mates for your intrest and kind comments. The project is slowly moving forward. Waiting for some photo etch parts.

David Taylor
I'm in.

Rando
Damn what a clean paint job.

J35J
Thanks David & Rando for you comments. Much appreciated👍🏻
Paint job and a light weathering in progress. Need to crack on with the decals in next phase before getting the folded wings in place.

Robert Podkoński
Somehow I missed this project before... And I have never heard about Sea Mossie up to now... Great job so far - keep it up!

BC NRA
This is very impressive work. I didn't know there was a Sea Mosquito.

J35J
Thanks BC NRA for your kind comments. Yes, the Sea Mosquito was a rare bird. Always fun to research & build the more odd versions.

Guy Rump
Looking great! 👍

Thomas Kolb
That's one pretty model in a very unusual stance. Well done!

J35J
Thanks Thomas for your kind comments.
Just realized going for the final photos that I missed the wind shield wiper for the front screen. Details, details…🙈😅

Villiers de Vos
Very nice work.

Łukasz Gliński
Very cool. Wish I could get that conversion set. The nose pimple is just a cherry on the cake 😄

J35J
Thanks Villiers de Vos & Lukasz Gliński for your intrest and kind comments!👍🏻

@ Lukasz Gliński - you can find a conversion kit here:

Łukasz Gliński
Thx a mil for the link 👍

Rando
Brilliant result on a unique aircraft!

J35J
Thanks Rando for your support!

@Łukasz - Always happy to help a fellow modeler.

J35J
Final pictures added. Project completed!
Fun build, pretty straightforward with the paragon conversion kit. Did some additional exterior detailing. Lesson learned - I should have gone with the Tamiya kit instead of Hasegawa. This due to Tam's better detail level both regarding interior and exterior. Now I had to compensate with additional resin and photo etch instead.
Going for some R&R now. Have a nice summer mates! 🏖️😎

Vincent
Very nice!!! Never heard of the sea version of the mosquito.

J35J
Thanks Vincent for your support & comments!👍🏻

BC NRA
fantastisk!
