Nice ones. I've been puzzling about what didn't look right on the Lightning (apart from the rarely used over-wing ferry tanks) - then it dawned on me; I don't recall camouflaged F6's wearing the 'old' style roundel, only the toned-down blue and red version - but there could be an exception I don't know about.
The Sabre looks rather nice too - is that a problem with the black 'Golden hawks' decals, or just the lighting?
 
The W in HAWKS caught my eye too. I chalked it up to a decal failure and a brush attempt to mimic the font.
 
Someday maybe I'll have something I can put in a show!!!!!! I sure wish I could have seen the under construction pictures of this one, "Chuck Sawyer's superb F-4E in 1/32". I think it's a beauty.

I have a Davidson F-4E from VMF-211 I want to build, but in 1/48th. I wonder which would be the best kit for it, anybody?

Great pictures, thanks for the post.
 
Last of the aircraft pics - a Sea Fury and Firefly of HMS Theseus. I think the Firefly should have been a later version for these markings.

Let's move on to some ships, starting with the HMS Hood:

Good stuff, and yes, the Firefly should be a MkV. The Sea Fury wings are rather too vertical, but if the modeller used the same wing fold parts as me, then at least he got the wings on !
