Got a Nimrod decal sheet to finally get the markings finished on this one.  Still no luck on sonobuoy pods or weapons, so I think I'll be scratch building Stingrays and keeping my eyes open for suitable sonobuoy pod materials until the last few days of the GB.

So literally within minutes of my last post yesterday inspiration struck and I think I found a good base to modify into sonobuoy launcher pods so hopefully when this one pops up as a Finished Build it will be sporting a full load of sonobuoys and torpedoes! 

On hold now though as the One Week GB starts tonight on the other site.

Well dammit. Was there an extension on this one?  I could have sworn the end was July 1??  So I felt like I failed because I never got around to scratch building my Stingray torpedoes or my sonobuoy launchers.  But I DID finally tonight get on my 203 Sqn decals and took some mediocre pics to get it entered before the deadline.  And now I see the deadline is July 14.  So maybe I CAN get my torpedoes and sonobuoy launchers built!!  So I'm not gonna post it in finished builds just yet just in case I can find the time. But for now here is the same model in the same position (it's too big for my normal photo booth setup).  Nothing new other than a little green 203 Sqn marking on the ventral tail.  If nothing else gets done I'll call it finished and enter it but I'm going to try to get more done to it and better pics taken.

Sonobouys and torpedoes sounds awesome!
