Airfix kits

Airfix 1/72 P-40CU and P-40B

Hello again, I just finished this double project. Kits were improved with resin accesories: wheels, exhausts, gun cannons on wings, wheel doors and propellers. Other improvements were done in the cockpit but most visible ones are the [...]

WMIK Land Rover

Last quick build before I go on holiday! This is the British Army special forces version of the Land Rover, as used in Afghanistan. WMIK standing for Weapons Mounted Installation Kit, it features a 12.7mm top mounted Browning heavy machine [...]

BOOOM ! I had another name for this dio but I’m afraid some people would call that "political-incorrect".

I’m building models for quite some years now, and I like to depict especially unusual things or ideas in a diorama. So it was no wonder that since many years I wanted to recreate an explosion in a model, the question simply was: How on [...]

Airfix 1/48 Hawker Hurricane (new tool)

I built this a few months ago and it is the kit that started my current "rediscovery" of Airfix as a competitive brand. Not a "shake and bake" but well thought out and with a little care builds into a nice aircraft. I [...]

Airfix 1/48 Hawker Hurricane

Today I fire a 1/48 scale salvo at my good friend Dennis Meyers in our friendly model competition (I know he's working on the Eduard 1/48 Spitfire he received from imodeler). This is my fourth completed kit for 2016, the Airfix 1/48 Hawker [...]

Airfix 1/72 Hurricane stirs a rivalry

Note that this article is the next episode of a friendly rivalry between myself and my good friend Scott Nelson (see Painting a Spitfire on March 8) centered around new Airfix 1/72 kits. These are great models that stand up to kits twice [...]

N.A. Mustang IV, Airfix 1/72

Hello everyone. My first completed models this year. I am happy with the result. Very good fit, but Humbrol acrylic paints are terrible for AB. I hope you like it 🙂 Cheers. Mladen.
