Airfix Spitfire F Mk. 22

by Scott Nelson on December 16, 2016 · in Aviation · 25 ≡

Here's my version of the Airfix 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire F Mk. 22. For this project I wanted to go for a pristine post-war finish so I did very little weathering. I also used the AK Xtreme Metal polished Aluminum. I very much like that [...]

Revell Tornado IDS / GR1

by Sebastien Privat on December 15, 2016 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

I've always liked the Tornado. It's a brute of an aircraft, it flies low (very low) and fast (very fast), it steers a bit like a cruise ship and it carries enough ordnance to ruin anyone's day (and it has done so quite a lot of times). So [...]

Airfix 2016 builds

by Tom Cleaver on December 13, 2016 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

I'm so hapy Airfix is back. Most of my work this year was on new Airfix kits, each of which I really liked. And there's still a whole big - yoooge! - pile of red boxes.

HOBBYCRAFT 1/48 P-36

by George Henderson on December 12, 2016 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

Not a night fighter this time but fits right in with my oddball schemes. This aircraft, along with it's squadron mates sported some pretty weird paint schemes while attending the 1939 Cleveland National Air Races. Trying to interpret the [...]
