A Real Lady – Airfix 1/48 Spitfire PR XIX
Following the last year's review of the 1/48 Airfix Spitfire PR Mk XIX by Tom Cleaver, this is one of these kits I just had to lay my hands on.
The idea was a simple out-of-the box project with a single-color paint scheme giving a chance [...]
Review: iModeler Review – Airfix 1/72 Bristol Blenheim
Hot off the press – the new tool 1/72 scale Bristol Blenheim Mk1 by Airfix (£14.99 converts to $25 US). These, thankfully, bear no resemblance to the old tool Airfix Mk IV in terms of engineering, detail and, hopefully, build. The [...]
AirFix 1:72 "Stringbag"
i have no particular affinity for the Swordfish, though i now think she's a pretty little thing in her own humble way. i started this build over a year ago as a rigging challenge. i've said it before, i do like what Airfix is producing [...]
Gloster Javelin FAW 9 in 1/48 by Airfix
Having built the Airfix Canberra PR 9 & the Sea Vixen with a great deal of pleasure I was lucky enough to win this kit at our monthly IPMS raffle. I think the Javelin is Airfix's best yet. Fit of parts was perfect; no filler anywhere. [...]
Airfix Spitfire PR.XIX 1/48
Spitfire PR.XIX with Xradecals & Ultracast add-onns. Decals, tyres and seat. Brake lines added from wire. My first PRU Blue ever and I tried to built it as almost new and well maintained - therefore weatheing kept in minimum. Hope [...]
Airfix 1/48 Seafire 17 (repost)
I just took a few better pics and posted them. Again, it's a great kit straight from the box. I painted it with Humbrol enamels including my last tins of Humbrol Authentics Slate Grey and Extra Dark Sea Grey. I must have had these tins [...]
A6M2b Zero (Airfix 1/72)
My latest build - a new tooling Zero from Arfix. Great kit (as the others "new tooling" kits from this manufacturer). This is completely OOB build, except a Pitot tube made of syringe needle and canopy masks from Eduard. Chipping [...]
Spitfire Mk XIV Rhapsody in Blue Rolls Royce’s Spitfire in 1/48
I’ve long admired the glorious turquoise and white scheme that adorned Rolls Royce’s Mk XIV Spitfire in the mid to late 1060’s just before G-ALGT played a supporting role in the epic film the ‘Battle of Britain’. A challenging [...]
Spitfire Mk II, Airfix 1/48 (work in progress)
need some details to finish it
Airfix Spitfire Mk XII in 1/48 scale
This is Airfix's recent kit release which I built shortly after it hit the shops. It's pretty much out of the box, but a couple of points made me a little reluctant to post images. I felt that the belly tank detracted from the profile [...]
