Airfix kits

1/72 USAirfix (Airfix) Havoc

The instructions say "copyright 1979". I've had this one sitting around for quite some time. Over the years I've built at least 3 others in different variants. It was time to just do the version on the box. The build was [...]

1/72 Airfix Bristol 170 Mk.32 Superfreighter

If you've noticed any of my past "selected files", you've probably answered the question you ask yourself while visiting the vendors at your local show, "who buys this kind of stuff?". Here's another one. The Airfix [...]

Airfix HMS Prince

This was my wife, Carol's, first model. I asked if she'd be interested in building anything, and she asked if they made sailing ships. She thought they looked neat. I was at a contest with my buddies, when I came across this model of [...]

1/72 Airfix P-38 Lightning

I decided to raid the stash one day, and came up with this old Airfix kit. While it shows it's age, it's still a fun build, and looks ok when finished. I opted for a small "base" rather than mess with weight in that tiny nose. [...]

Hawker Typhoon Airfix 1/72.

1/72 Airfix Supermarine Walrus

Nice little kit, with fictitious paint job, possibly of that era, that I just had to do.

1/72 Airfix Grumman Duck

This one is modeled after Kermit Week's Duck, at "Fantasy of Flight", a little south of Orlando, Florida. Oddly enough, the decals were from an old Esci sheet, including the noseart. For a bi-plane (and an Airfix), it was a [...]

RAF “V’ Bombers. Valiant, Vickers, and Vulcan

I was commissioned to build the three "V" bombers by a gentleman that grew up in Lincolnshire, England. He remembered the "V" bombers when he was younger. He asked that I do all three models in the same scale and in the [...]

1/72 Airfix Fiat G50

This was another "club build". We were all building an inexpensive Airfix Fiat G50, any way we chose. I remembered this scheme, and thought I'd give it a try. My national markings are wrong, but they were what I had, and [...]

Supermarine Seafire XV in 1/48

Let me start by saying I’m not the world’s greatest modeller. Nor am I the fastest. I am however a Spitfire/Seafire-holic and what you’re now looking at is a seven month labour of love. But let’s start at the beginning… This is [...]
