Airfix 1/48 Avro Anson Mk.I
This really is a kit of opposites.
The cockpit internals and the overall fit is beautiful but the fit of the nacelles leaves a little to be desired.
Nothing a spot of filler and plasticard can't fix but it was a surprise after the ease of [...]
Airfix Nakajima B5N2 Kate 1/72nd scale
Airfix Nakajima B5N2 Kate, 1/72nd scale. I have wanted to do this kit for a long time - this is the Pearl Harbor 75th anniversary edition.

Flying the Orient Express: the Handley Page H.P.42 Heracles!
I would like to preface this article with one remark: I have hardly found such amazingly good and varied photographic material for any other aircraft of this era than in the search for material on the H.P.42 Heracles! In pictures whose [...]
Airfix 1/72 H81-A2/P-40B
Here is Airfix's 1/72nd scale Flying Tigers Curtiss H81-A2 (P-40B) . I really like Airfix's newer 1/72nd scale kits. Some modelers complain about the heavy pannel lines but once the kit is premed and painted they really get toned down to a [...]

1/32 1933 MG K3 Magnette
I came across this kit on ebay whilst looking for info on the K3 MG. Being an avid fan of the marque and an ex owner of both an MG TC and an MGA mk2 I decided to buy the K3 kit. It was over priced and overseas but what the heck its a [...]
1/72 F4F-4 Wildcat.
This little Airfix Wildcat crossed the finish line today. This model was part of an Airfix starter set that included a set of acrylic paints and a brush. I purchased it because it came with markings for a VC-13 plane aboard the escort [...]
Italeri 1/48 Westland Wessex HU.5
I had so much fun building this.
Never having built a Helicopter before but the scheme caught my eye and so I decided the time was right to give it a go.
Primed with Tamiya Neutral Grey.
Painted with Airfix Signal Red.
Colourcoats RAF Blue [...]
Airfix B-25B Mitchell 1/72
This is a B25 from the 34th bombardment squadron in 1941, according to Airfix. I was surprised to see how small the B25 actually is.
