1/72 Airfix Fairey Swordfish Mk.1

by Phil Steele on May 18, 2017 · in Aviation · 31 ≡

Despite being busy (like a long tailed cat in a rocking chair factory) I got another one finished ! It's OOB with some scratch built items and general repairs, mostly the result of brittle plastic. Rigged with pre-blackened 2 lb test [...]

The Pilgrim Fathers ferry.. I bought the kit in a bag second hand with as much flash as there was kit plastic. I do like the results. Including three little Fathers! It's not as colorful as other Mayflowers but I really can't imagine a [...]

by Andrew Frill on May 17, 2017 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Fellas, just finished the Trumpeter 32 scale kit. I had to use the Steel Beach resin update that has all the fuselage humps and bumps of the Growler, as Trumpeter only gives you the wing tip ALQ-218 pods and the under wing ALQ-99 pods and [...]
