Here is my build of the 1/48 Airfix DE Havilland Sea Vixen FAW 2 - No. 893, Naval Air Squadron, HMS Victorious, 1966.
The de Havilland DH.110 Sea Vixen is a twin boom, twin-engined 1950s–60s British two-seat jet fighter of the Fleet Air Arm designed by de Havilland at Hatfield, Hertfordshire. Developed from an earlier first generation jet fighter, the Sea Vixen was a capable carrier-based fleet defence fighter that served into the 1970s. Initially produced by de Havilland it was later known as the Hawker Siddeley Sea Vixen after de Havilland became a part of the Hawker Siddeley Group in 1960. A single example remains airworthy today in the UK and is displayed regularly at airshows.

If so how much?

A question if I may...
I have a HMS Bismarck and HMS Hood that need building. The Hood is a Trumpeter and I've started it and the Bismarck is the new Revell one. Would anyone here be interested in building them, I would have course provide all paints and stuff needed, but I see talent here I can't get close to but I would love them together as we come to 75 years since the battle of Denmark straight.
I'm in Staffs but would arrange delivery, collection and beers/cakes/chips or a blast round a race track in my mx5 race car if that's your thing?

That F 15 and Sea Vixen are brilliant Toby, well done 
Needs more tanks -Not warhammer tanks
I have a few AFV kits now including the Hanomag I'm working on.
Some lovely models here, most impressive! 
I'm looking for a large RMS Titanic kit, ideally bigger than 1/1200 scale that seems the biggest from the main suppliers (Airfix, Revell etc) looking to pay ~£100 for the base kit and scratch build the finer details (steam pipes, rigging etc) from builders plans over time, due to the level of detail I want to attain, it needs to be big as the ship itself was to get the detail I'm looking for, any suggestions as to where I should be looking for my base kit please?
