Airfix 1/72 Harrier GR 3

Here’s my Airfix 1/72 Hawker Harrier GR 3. I bought this kit to eventually add one to my collection of RAF fighters, but I was never a big fan of the type. To me the Harrier just didn’t look right. Boy how my attitude has changed [...]

Messerschmitt BF109E-4

Hi guys, Here I bring you all, my latest build out of my bench. This is an new airfix molde and is a treat. It goes together really well and with minimal effort you can achieve a fantastic result. For this build, I have used the laquer [...]

On one of the other modelling forums I frequent, there's an annual Group Build in which participants build an unstarted kit of their choice in a 24-hour period. Frequent updates have to be posted, with progress photos taken including a [...]

Roundup of recent builds

Well, I realised that I hadn't uploaded my last few builds so here is what I've been working on. First up we have the new Tamiya Spitfire in 1:48. A great kit despite the errors in it. This will be featured in a new series in Model [...]
