The Committee are watching this closely, several members have said Yellow, but the others have insisted its CAMO, including Matron .

HI J/R an Matron an co of the DOGS commitee according to Ian one of our mods he says that the camo vershion was not in service yet while tiger was so no camo im afraid so if i can get the info an pics of the red an blue SAR navy vershion i will build that as it will be a different colour to the workin seaking on the flight deck now
AN BEST WISHES TO YOU John AN Matron AN CO

Sorry I made a boo boo- the Red and Blue SAR was a Wessex.

but she does look nice.
If you want the Sea king she would have been Red/orange and grey but thing first came in service to late (again) Still nice but not as striking
Does look good in the Yellow though: https://www.historichelicopters.com/Pages/35/Sea-King.html And fits the time frame for the Tiger. (or Liger as she was known by the crew).
First off many thanks Ian for finding up this info but is it possible to find a pic of the red /orange an grey seaking an i will bang that on the deck as cant do a yellow one as it was RAF wasnt it ? so cant go on tiger
chrisb
AN Rick you naughty boy tellin me its yellow as its the RAFcolours FOR SAR isnt it ?
chrisb
WELL guys i may go for the first camo an yes Ian i know it wont be accrurate but heck it only a model an cant get everythig right an most people will not even notice but i do like that green an grey cammo
chrisb
chrisb
I say Camo as well.
Best reason there is for using it….
See, I told you that you wanted to
HI TIM yes it will be something different an accrucey be dammed
well Neil it looks like you was right as i love the normal blue chopper but something different is what i want an i think it will look good crossways up nr the hanger all foldedup as its a big flight deck 20 inches long so should be enough roon for both chopperSee, I told you that you wanted to

HI Rick well ive got a seaking done in yellow as its the one i think it was Andy the paint guy treid to paint it in bright yellow an was not happy with it so he sent it to me an to me it looks ok but i think yellow was not a royal navy colour an will look a bit outlandish on a warship flightdeck. Only lot who would like that WHOULD be them little buggers the minions thinkin its a gaint banna lol:rolling:Awwwww Chris.......yer just saying that cause I wanted to see you do it in yellow Camo!
:smiling::smiling::smiling: but a m8 has sent me a pic of a R/N seaking in red an grey so may do that colour yet or the camo:thinking: OH CANT MAKE UP MY MIND dessions dessions oh boy ive never been this indesive ever must be my 70th birhday comin up in december the 20th whats gettin to me lol :rolling: :smiling::smiling:ATB to you Rick my freind
chrisb PS the red an grey vershion i think i may do this below an this is a navy vershion an will look more in keepin with a military helo on tigers flightdeck
SORRY Rick to dissapoint you lol :rolling:
:smiling::smiling:
AN Would you guys like to see the build of this seaking as nothing will be workin an no lights are bein fitted as this will be IN A folded up postion on the flight deck ?
Chrisb
Chrisb
of course, Chris!
I used to be indecisive Chris, but now I'm not so sure! :tongue-out:
That red & grey Sea King looks rather good, and easier to mask than the camo, and yes, of course we want a build thread!
