1/48 Airfix DeHavilland Vampire F.3

My growing collection of twin boomers!... I completed this one last week in my Vampire feast...looking to do a 1/72 and 1/144 one too! IT was a pretty nice build..no real issues BUT it does need considerable nose weight to avoid tail [...]

I’ve made quite a few of the new Airfix kits, mostly the 1/72 models, and this is the best one they’ve put out of those. Outstanding fit, very good detail, the best panel line size in this scale for Airfix, and great decals. I did add [...]

1/48 AirFix Bristol Blenheim Mk.1

Been quite a long time since I have been on the site with a completed model! A lot of "life" has kept me from the bench for almost a year. I picked up this kit on Facebook Marketplace along with an AirFix P-51D for $15. [...]

Airfix Gloster Meteor F.8 1/72
