Airfix kits

Airfix 1:24 Hawker Typhoon MK.1B

My recently completed Tiffy built to represent an aircraft flown by Wing Commander Charles Green operating out of B.5 Advanced Landing Ground in Normandy, June 1944. The aircraft is loaded with a mixed bag of fragmentation and 60lb HE [...]

Folland Gnat T.1 1/72

Well, don't take it too serious. It's just a kind of joke you know. An ultimate fiction made from the new Airfix kit of that famous British trainer. Just a few words about the story behind: I asked my wife about the liveries offered by the [...]

1/72 Swiss Bf-109G-6

The history of the Bf-109 is well documented and so I'm not going it into it today 🙂 About a week ago, in the midle of some long-time buildings, I felt like a fast build. Browsing through my stash, I found an old, simple (maybe too [...]

1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4

Picked this up at the local toyshop. One half of the Airfix Dogfight Doubles (the other being the Spitfire Mk I that I am currently working on). Pretty fun kit. Only a couple of small crises during the build - temporarily lost a tail-plane [...]

Airfix 1/72 Boulton Paul Defiant Mk1

Hi There, This was purchased in a well-known Edinburgh model shop over a year ago and Innis picked it, so while I was off work awaiting a Covid-19 test result I thought it was about time it was built. Innis decided it would be wheels [...]

Airfix 1/48 Hawker Hurricane Mk1

Model depicts an aircraft flown by the Finnish Air Force 2/Lentoliavue 26, Kilpasilta airfield, April 1943. The only mods necessary to convert to a Finnish Hurricane are a taller scratch aerial mast and a small first aid hatch added on [...]

Spifire Mk.22, 1/72 Airfix.

The Last of the many, Spitfire Mk.22, to me the most pleasing to the eye. I knew this kit existed but didn't realize it wasn't being produced any more. I got this off ebay at a reasonable price. Another 'new' tool Airfix gem of a kit. [...]

1/48 Airfix Blenheim Mk.I Bomber

I decided to do the Airfix Blenheim Mk.If kit as the Mk. I bomber. All it required was using the excellent Vector bomb sight and the alternative clear nose part, with the lower port panel buffed clear, supplied in the kit. I had the [...]

P40B. Flying Tigers. R.T Smith. Airfix 1/48

Hello again As we are still confined here in France, I have been particularly encouraged to work on my models... Here is a P40B from Airfix, not the best model I built. Quite over-engineered to my mind, but It did the job... Enjoy and [...]

Airfix 1/72 Tomahawk IIbQuick Build Experiment

Hi There, Whilst working at my usual glacial pace on another build I decided on Monday to see how quickly I could complete a kit using enamels. This is the result. I have just spent the last two hours trying for the life of me to get the [...]
