made this one during the holidays, the model is a Revell 1/72 Seaking Mk.41 (REV04411, the one with Skua missiles) that come with parts for a RN HAS5, the parts included make it similar to the Belgian Mk48's.
the aircraft depicted is the RS05 in camo (was repainted as Black Beauty in 2001), the reason i chose RS05 is because this was the seaking i had a chance to ride in 10 years ago, and it was the first time i ever flown. so thats the reason i painted it this way  :mellow:

the Decals are from DACO's excelent Belgian seaking sheet and the FLIR turret is scratchbuild  ;D

Wow, you've really improved in skill! Nice subject, love the camo. I've done some models over the holidays too. A Hunter (not finished yet), a Tornado and a Ka-58.

Great job, Nils.  And, if you hadn't mentioned that it was "real world," I would have believed it was a Whif scheme, too!   :cheers:
