Westland Whirlwind
Hi,
Here is another of my recent builds, the old Airfix Westland Whirlwind in 1/72 scale.
This is a "retooling" from the '70's rather than the original kit they produced in the 1960's. Although a simple kit with less than 50 [...]
Airfix 1/24 Scale Ju 87B - 6 StG 1
Made for an old pal, I decided that by July/Aug 1940, the Stukas that remained in service would have looked used and abused. They'd followed the advancing Wehrmacht through N Europe from field to field, then operated intensively over the [...]
'Old Skool Airfix' – Super Mystere B2
Built in the middle of my P-47 project - I was waiting on some extras from the UK - 90mins to build and a few on-and-off sessions to spray-mask-spray again. Think this one dates from 1972, the decals are from an (almost as old) [...]

Hawker P1127, XP836, flown by A.W."Bill" Bedford, Dunsfold England 1961.
1/72 Airfix, I modified the engine intake and compressor, the pitot tube, adjusted the undercarriage and sanded off most of the rivets, finished in MM metalizer with MM sealer over kit decals, built previous to 2007.
Airfix 1/144 Concorde
Another nostalgic build, when I saw this kit at a model show I couldn't resist, having built one long ago, I remember hand painting the silver wings. Anyway, I had planned on doing it as one of the prototypes. but I took the easy way out [...]
Airfix Spitfire Mk1a 1/72 Starter Kit
Hi, everybody. This is my first contribution as an article to iModeler. Some years ago I bought this Spitfire MK1a Starter Kit for my then 16 yo step son, but he never got interested in modelling. Anyway, some years later I found this when [...]
