AH.7 Lynx, Afghanistan 2006
Long time no speak, iModeler! Here is a Lynx gifted to me by my wife's grandmother Mary, who we all called Nan. She was a very special lady, veteran of ww2 WAAF, and tough as nails. I only wish she got to see this sooner...
Airfix 1/48 Meteor F.8
By 1947, the Meteor fighter had been in production slightly more than four years, with an airframe that was much the same as the original prototype, other than extensions of the engine nacelles which had been accomplished with the F.Mk.4 [...]
New Heinkel
Here are a few photos of my latest build, the new 1:72 Airfix He111H which I have built for Airfix Model World Magazine and is featured in the new August issue which is out now. This is a pretty good kit as you'd expect from a modern [...]

Have to say, I've really enjoyed building my first aircraft for my Battle of Britain Collection both for RAF and Luftwaffe aircraft. Detail is superb and offers a good model for a different RAF aircraft.
I first built a defiant when I was [...]
1/48 Airfix Seafire F.XVII
Have been working on this kit off and on for the past year. Airfix has really upped its game recently. Only thing I think they could improve on this kit would be the main landing gear. The wing attachment points strike me as a little weak. [...]
New Airfix Beaufighter
Here are a few pictures of the new Airfix 1:72 TF10 Beaufighter which I built for the new issue of Airfix Model world Magazine. Terry Higgins provided lots of invaluable research towards this build and the magazine features a supplement on [...]

Airfix 1/48 Boulton Paul Defiant MK.I, 264 SQN RAF, 1940
May I present my rendition of Airfix's recent release of the 1/48 scale BP Defiant. Finished in one of the kit schemes of an aircraft from 264 SQN, RAF in Suffolk, 1940. The level of detail OOB is excellent and provides a great start if [...]
