FMA I.Ae. 27 Pulqui I. 1:72 AllianceModels

by Gábor Szabó on December 2, 2015 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

It is just for interesting. I made this kit about nearly 20 years ago when we received a sample from AllianceModels at Model and Maquette Magazine (long defunct sadly). These kits were fairly rare even when they released (and not too high [...]

For winning the random draw for the last month I received the Airfix Spitfire Mk Vb. Here is the box up on my Spitfire shelf in the study. The molding is excellent and the instructions appear to be CAD generated. Now I need to move the [...]

Airfix 172 Lightnings

by mark poulton on December 1, 2015 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

Carrying on my Airfix love affair, I eagerly waited the new Lightning when it was released. I have built several of the 1/48 scale ones and they were/are superb models and a delight to build. I asked Santa for an F-2A when it was first [...]
