Airfix kits

Airfix 1/72 MIG-15

My fourth monthly ‘staying-at-home, no-frills, stash-reduction, build and paint’ project--June edition. A nice little kit that was one of Airfix's new generation. Apparently it received mixed reviews because the fuselage is a little [...]

Airfix 1/48 Ju 87B Stuka

Hello! This is my recent project, a classic WW2 warbird. Nice kit, everything went well. Unfortunately, the clear part, which would allow to build a full open canopy, came damaged beyond repair. It had a L shape hole right on the top. So, [...]

Battle of Britain Hurricanes

Finally finished the next models for my Model Airplane International Battle of Britain series, a pair of 1:48 Airfix Hurricanes. A lot of research went into P2923 and a big thanks must got Mark Postlethwaite for the a photo of this [...]

Canadian Tomahawk, 1/48 Airfix

Have been modeling for 30 years and this is the first P-40 I have built. Not sure why, as I have always been a big fan since I saw “The Flying Tigers” as a kid. Really enjoyed building this kit, and it is one of Airfix’s better [...]

Airfix 1/48 Spitfire PR. XIX

Hello iModeler! This is my recently finished Airfix Spitfire PR. XIX. Although the interferon detail was not as crisp as the newly tooled Airfix Mk. V Spitfire, it was still a fun kit and went together rather nicely. Build was OOB, [...]

Avro Vulcan 1/72

This has to be one of my finest models and I never expected it to be. It is an Airfix kit and had its fair share of problem, but now looks great and is a great addition to my room. I decided to sharpie over the cockpit instead of keeping [...]

Airfix 1:24 Hawker Typhoon MK.1B

My recently completed Tiffy built to represent an aircraft flown by Wing Commander Charles Green operating out of B.5 Advanced Landing Ground in Normandy, June 1944. The aircraft is loaded with a mixed bag of fragmentation and 60lb HE [...]

Folland Gnat T.1 1/72

Well, don't take it too serious. It's just a kind of joke you know. An ultimate fiction made from the new Airfix kit of that famous British trainer. Just a few words about the story behind: I asked my wife about the liveries offered by the [...]

1/72 Swiss Bf-109G-6

The history of the Bf-109 is well documented and so I'm not going it into it today 🙂 About a week ago, in the midle of some long-time buildings, I felt like a fast build. Browsing through my stash, I found an old, simple (maybe too [...]

1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4

Picked this up at the local toyshop. One half of the Airfix Dogfight Doubles (the other being the Spitfire Mk I that I am currently working on). Pretty fun kit. Only a couple of small crises during the build - temporarily lost a tail-plane [...]
