Airfix Hawker Hurricane Mk.1 1/72

I have wanted to build this kit for quite some time. There’s some nice examples of this kit on this site. I used only AK Interactive acrylics for this one- their dark brown/green are much nicer than Ammo Mig‘s, tbh. Some panel line [...]

Airfix Supermarine Swift 1/72

Another one done i have wanted to for a very long time. The Swift may not have been super successful but it looks great. This is what a jet from the 50ies is supposed to look like. Plus, that blue belly just got my attention. Many [...]

Airfix Gloster Meteor F.8 1/72

Just finished this newly tooled Airfix Gloster Meteor. Great detail, just the right amount of parts really to get to the pain job within a reasonable amount of time (i am not a patient person). The build is straightforward. Unfortunately [...]
