Rotorman Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 (edited) Well, it's about time... The seaking is being designed in CAD in 1/35 scale. Starting to save money for that then since always wanted to build them. Between the Wasp being designed in 1/32 and the Seaking, modeling Gods have listened.

JohnEB Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Coincidentally, this just showed up on Scalemates, a new 1:48 Sea King. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/duke-hawkins-westland-sea-king--1540857 I've never heard of the maker. (but then again, I haven't been looking). Any plans for an S-61R variant? It was frequently mentioned on the "most wanted" helicopter list. The Wasp is an interesting subject, fairly unknown by a lot of people and not as widely used as the Sea King (but then, few aircraft are). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a special tie-up with the release of the Duke Hawkins book on the Sea King. New Airfix kit with 3D printed parts and special decals to make one of the of the aircraft in the book. https://www.themodellingnews.com/2024/03/preview-sikorskywestland-sea-king-from.html#more I suspect this is a one-off, and there won’t be other versions.

I talked to the folks working on the Seaking in Australia, they are planning several versions of the Seaking. Cross fingers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
