        Superb job Colin matey, it looks amazing. I think its a nice change to see one in the silver , to quote Will I Am it looks really "dope" (sorry, I'll get me coat) The rigging is excellent and for me the weathering and staining is spot on . Great build , cheers tony

              Thanks again to everyone for taking time to comment. This is indeed a kit I can recommend, if you want to build a 'Stringbag' build an Airfix (new tool)

              Now, confession time. I did plan on building this kit loaded up with the torpedo. It seems that this combination of floats and torpedo wasn't to successful - just too much weight, but there are a couple of photo's showing this layout. So, I built the cradle for the torpedo, and lost it. So, no torpedo for my Swordfish !

              Thanks again to all,

              Colin M..
