Airfix 1/48 Hawker Hurricane Mk.1
The newly tooled Hurricane is totally perfect and hardly no problems at all. Only issue I found is that the fiddly gun barrels that locate into their compartments go together with a touch of force and a snap. Decals are from cartograph and [...]
Douglas A-4B Skyhawk Argentine Air Force – Airfix 1/72 (A03029)
Hi all
I have decided to build an A-4B Skyhawk from Argentine Air Force during the Falklands conflict in 1982.

1/72 Airfix Stormovik
Like it's builder (me), this model is an antique. It seems I've been going through a stage of doing old kits, that are fast and relatively easy. I've ignored my WWII Japanese and Soviet aircraft in the past, and I'm starting to fill [...]

3D Printing & Modelling
I have always been a bit of a gadget man and so when 3D printers first appeared on the scene some years ago it was like a moth to a flame. However, at that time I was unable to find a suitable CAD package that was capable of 3D modelling, [...]
Video: Airfix 1:72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I/Mk.IIa
This video is dedicated to "George Iatrou" who supplied this kit.
I really enjoyed this project, it was one of those "can I do this?" builds. I learned a lot along the way, and was very glad to build another one of [...]
