Theres an article in the latest Model aircraft (monthly) which changes the ideas of what colour schemes the Skua were painted after one was pulled up from a Norwegian fiord.

[Blumax]

A kind of rusty green slimy colour?

Here's what little information I can contribute:

-First the Roc (3 scans)





-an additional 3 view



-and one 3 view of the Skua



Hope this helps ... TS

I think that the Skua project on AAS has been dead for a very long time. It's a typical newbie project, with one screenshot of a partially completed LoD model and no further progress after that.

Thanks everyone. Great internals info Kopfdorfer.

I was just thinking to myself maybe a Frankenplane is very plausible.
As the Blackburn Skua looks so much like the Arado Ar196T-1 in ways. 

[Kopfdorfer]

Some similarities with Su-2 as well...

Or even the SBD3 Dauntless?
It has the advantage of having all of the fittings needed for the Skua.
Useful if like me you don't know much about aircraft modelling.



I might continue with this when Eagle is completed.

[Redman]

Oh please do. The Fleet Air Arm needs it!

You will be my hero if you do so, more than you already are ofcourse

Aeroplane did a database article about the Skua and Roc some years ago, this might be very useful if you have the relevant issue. Will check to see which issue that was.
