Saved by the Bell, 1/72nd Bf 109E-3 Airfix A02062
I bought a kit on FB/Marketplace with a porch pickup, having to ring the bell after leaving the agreed payment in the mailbox. I left the payment, rang the doorbell and started walking back to my car. The seller then came out and added [...]
Airfix Hawker Hurricane Mk.1 / France, 1940
A few months ago i read an interesting article regarding the german breakthrough at Sedan in 1940 and how the myth of the weak resistance of the allied forces was created. I think it's fascinating how a series of small strategic mistakes [...]
1/72 Lockheed F-80C Shooting Star
Here's my build of a Lockheed F-80C Shooting Star in 1/72 scale with markings as during the Korean War.
The kit used was the vintage Airfix kit from 1974. Panel lines were re-scribed and rivets added. The cockpit and seat were re-done with [...]
C-47A - "That's All Brother" – 1/72 Airfix
I picked up a 1967 boxing of this 1960 Airfix 1/72 C-47 Douglas Dakota kit last month, and decided to make it my first build for 2025. I chose as my subject "That's All Brother", which led the main airborne invasion of [...]
Airfix 1/72 McDonnell Douglas Phantom FG.1 XV582 Lands End – John O' Groats
By sheer coincidence I've managed to finish this version of XV582 exactly 3 years to the day after a later version of the same airframe.
Nothing to add about the Airfix Phantom that hasn't already been said but I'm enjoying my journey [...]
Sunk F4F Wildcat "Felix the Cat" from USS Lexington CV-2
Disclaimer: I really struggled if I would publish this yet or not.
In March 4th 2018 the oceanographic ship RV Petrel found the old wreck of the carrier CV-2 USS Lexington, sunk in the Coral Sea battle. Among the items scattered on the [...]
Airfix Gloster Gladiator Mk.II 1/72
I enjoy building late 1930 / early war planes from the RAF. I like the planes and i find the schemes interesting. So naturally i have wanted to build the Airfix Gladiator for awhile now. The kit is great except for the cockpit door, its [...]
Ford Tri-Motor
The Ford Tri-Motor (nicknamed the "Tin Goose") was a three-engined transport aircraft. Production ran from 1926 to 1933, after 199 had been made.
In 1922, William Stout founded Stout Metal Airplane Co. After he sent a [...]
1/72 Mosquito PR. XVI.
This is the recent Airfix kit built with Barracuda 3D printed landing gear. It’s an amazing addition to an already solid kit. I also used Kits World seatbelts and Eduard masks for the glass. Precut masks are a lifesaver on 1/72 kits [...]
Airfix 1/24 Spitfire MkIX, MH894, 309th FS, USAAF.
Greetings all,
This is very likely be my last completion of 2024, the simply superb Airfix 1/24th scale Spitfire MkIX. I know a lot has already been said about this kit, but I cannot rate it highly enough. Detail from the box is [...]
