Airfix scale model kits

1/48th Westland Lynx AH.7

This is the Airfix, 1/48th scale AH.7 Lynx. This was a superb kit, but it took me a long time to finish it because the fit tolerances were so tight, I spent a lot of time making adjustments to get the fuselage to fit around the interior [...]

Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk Vb

With this build, I continue my “love affair” with the Polish expatriate pilots of RAF 303 Sqdn (Poland) and their service to the U.K. during WWII. Following the Battle of Britain, and over time, the unit transitioned to various models [...]

AIRFIX 1:48 SPITFIRE MK.I (Kit Number A05115A)

I built this in tandem with the build I posted yesterday using the earlier and slightly easier to build kit. This is the other famous 57 OTU aircraft, LV⦿N, s/n AR212. I shamelessly copied from yesterdays article...Innards were painted [...]

Airfix 1:48 Spitfire Mk. I (Kit Number A05126)

The newest Mk.I kit with the fuel tank cover and landing gear issues. Other than that, a great kit. This is WZ⦿H of 19 Squadron, Duxford, 4th May 1939. Innards were painted with Tamiya XF-71 Cockpit Green. Masking tape harnesses. The [...]

Airfix B-17 G 1/72

Hi there, This is my recent project, a nice Airfix kit. Not my usual scale, but this bird in 1/48 just won't fit my space here. Except Eduard Masks, a must for all these clear parts, everything else OOB. Fitting is nice in general, [...]

Airfix Bf 109 G-6, 1/72

This was from an old Dogfight Doubles kit (along with a Beaufighter - coming soon). I wasn't actually sure what model of 109 it was, so had to learn about all the variations to figure out what it most closely resembled. Then did some work [...]

Welchome to my P-40B Show n' Tell.

The names Welch, Taylor, Brown, Rasmussen and Sanders are names commonly known as "the five that got up" on 7 December. What can be lesser known is the details of their aircraft. P-40B "160" is generally regarded as the [...]

The new Airfix Sabre

This is the new Airfix Sabre in 1:48 scale which I've just built and is featured in the current issue of Airfix Model World Magazine. This was a great kit to build, plenty of detail in it and it all fits well. The markings will be one of [...]
