JohnB Posted September 2, 2022 Posted September 2, 2022 I just thought this would be a good time to do this. Maybe a bit late since the fire and all but better late than never. My only completed Fisher build is the Sea Fury which I modeled as the one I saw at a airshow in Alton, IL YEARS ago. It was owned at the time by Ormond Hayden Bailey who was killed in a P-51 crash a few years later. A enjoyable kit to build! 9 3

ScottsGT Posted September 3, 2022 Posted September 3, 2022 Great thread. Let’s load it up and get word to Paul to show how much we appreciate his hard work and that we’re not all “kit flippers”. 11 3

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 4, 2022 Administrators Posted September 4, 2022 For y’all’s convenience, I pinned this. For now. I’m mulling making this a separate thread, but I think probably not. I did edit a couple things for clarity. 3
Peterpools Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 Gaz - Thank you for the kind comments - has to ne a good number of years since I built the Sea Fury - so far my first and only resin kit.
Peterpools Posted September 4, 2022 Posted September 4, 2022 Ernie Right with you on 'pinning this thread' A nice thank you to Paul Fisher for the models he created.
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted September 5, 2022 Administrators Posted September 5, 2022 Peter, I remember you building that kit and combating a few pinholes. It was a stellar build of an RCN classic, and got me pining for a 1/32 late Banshee in RCN clolors to complement the Sea Fury. And a Firefly, and an RCN conversion for the Trumpeter Avenger…. 2
Peterpools Posted September 5, 2022 Posted September 5, 2022 Thanks Ernie, very much appreciated and I'm right with you and how I wouldn't jump on a RCN Banshee in 32nd scale. 1
JohnB Posted October 5, 2022 Author Posted October 5, 2022 My latest build is this Fisher 1/32 F9F Panther. 10 2
Peterpools Posted November 20, 2022 Posted November 20, 2022 John One awesome Fisher Panther and the Iron Works Gang from Bethpage would be proud. 1

HubertB Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 I have already told how I liked your Twogar, John. I am very tempted to finish mine to reproduce this very well known picture of a mishap where the pilots escaped, but the airframe finished at the bottom of the sea … Hubert 7
