phantom Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 (edited) THATS the kit I have been waiting for!!!!!!!! A "CP-121" !!!!!! Model looks nice, REAL nice but your builder has the port and starboard lights on the wrong wings. THe "tin cans" on the wing ends should be up and down not forward and aft. (see photo) BUT!!! It still looks very buildable and I plan on getting three. trackera37.jpg Edited April 26, 2013 by phantom Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VMFA314Knights Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Nice - I've been waiting for a Canadian version of this kit to possibly show up - sounds like the wait may not be much longer? Great job David Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Great job David It shouldn't be much longer, a few months ago I had my hands on an unbuilt test-shot. I tried to run out the door with it but was stopped. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brad-M Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yves, We have decals..Mike Belcher has some. Brad I can't wait... We need some dekals and resin............... Can anyone name all those Guizmos under the wings !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brad-M Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I hope the engine nacells and the tail planes were modified for the Canadian version? Brad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mawz Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Yves, We have decals..Mike Belcher has some. Brad Doesn't he do some Resin as well? I think he has an CS2F conversion for the long-fuselage S-2E, it should mostly apply for the S-2A as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Finn Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 The items under the wings are, top - SKAD - Survival Kit Air Droppable, next two are photos pods if i remember correctly and last are LAU-5002 6 tube rocket pods. Jari Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dylan Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 awesome!!!! I need 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
82Whitey51 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Alright! This is the one I've been waiting for too. While I do dig on the USN "E" version, it is the CP-121 I recall see lots of while hitting airshows in the 80s up in New England and I like that weird gray/blueish/greenish color (colour??) they had.

Tom Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 The version I have been waiting for, too. I am curious, though, if the DMold S-2E Corrected Forward Fuselage will be "necessary" for the S-2A. Now, I don't have the Kinetic S-2E so I don't know exactly what the shape issues are, but the DMold set for the S-2E is a multipart, complete nose starting from just behind the cockpit.

viper31_ca Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 This is great, however is this just simply the existing kit with CDN markings thrown in? Or did they make the necessary changes to make it a CDN bird, namely cut molds for a shorter fuselage, as the original kit is too long. As well as other differences in the CDN birds.

This is the S-2A/S2F-1 kit, so it's short fuselage. No word yet on whether it's correct for an S2F-1 or a CS2F-1, although I'd suspect the fuselage is patterned on the latter given Kinetics connections. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
yvesff Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 ~$65 with shipping from Lucky Models, I'm buying two... I have been waiting for this kit for a long time Any of the two Dave's (Canuck & Leading Edge) making decals (Yeah I know Belcher has some ...) http://www.luckymodel.com/scale.aspx?item_no=KI-K48039 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can get that exact color from the Resin Shipyard. It is White Ensign Model enamel. http://www.resinshipyard.com/pages/paint.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RiderFan Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) You can get that exact color from the Resin Shipyard. It is White Ensign Model enamel. http://www.resinshipyard.com/pages/paint.html That's the navy version. I think you'll find that it's the same number, but not the same colour. I spent 10 years in the Navy and a lot of paint ship routines. That colour is nothing like what our aircraft were painted like. hhmm just saw the decal sheet for the first time. Is it my imagination or is armées spelled wrong (too many acute accent's)? Might be just the picture. Edited June 7, 2013 by RiderFan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 The lettering for "Armed Forces Forces Armeed" also appears off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Colin K Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) Yup, they put in an extra accent on the second "E". It just needs to be trimmed from the decal. Font appears to be incorrect as well. Edited June 8, 2013 by Colin K Quote Link to post Share on other sites
