Cold War...1/48 English Electric Lightning F.2A, No.92 Sqn RAF
After the Airfix Walrus, now an Airfix Classic.
My dad wanted to do a silver bird, so he decided to build the Airfix Lightning which I bought him as a present for last Christmas.
Didn´t turn out perfect and has its glitches but all in all [...]
1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4
I enjoyed my recent build of an Airfix Gustav 109, so when I saw this Emil the other day with Battle of Britain markings I picked it up. Little did I know that unlike the Gustav, AO1008A was an Airfix "new tool" kit. Instead [...]
German Air Force Focke Wulf 190 D-9 Yellow 10
Here I have a model that I built about 15 years ago at the beginning of my modeling career.
It is a kit from Airfix 1:72
Airfix Bristol Beaufort Mk.I 17/2

Airfix 1/72 Vulcan B.2
The new tool Airfix Vulcan is superior in every respect (unfortunately, also for the price) to the original issue dated back in 1983. The build is straight forward. However, the massive model size poses challenges along the build. Your [...]
"This one is SMALL and this one is FAR AWAY!" (Father Ted)
Decided to make a Mini Me of Airfixes Typhoon. Hunted down a second hand Hasegawa 1/48 and painted and decalled it the same as Airfix. Not a bad kit. Bought a couple of Eduard accesories.
Biggest noticable difference, apart from the [...]
Hawker Sea Hurricane, in 1/48, by Airfix.
An enjoyable build (for the most part) and one which I will be happy to do again, as I have the standard Hurricane in my stash. Commendable fit except for the interior cockpit framing interfering with the fuselage/ wing joint. Solved by [...]
