Finished! - 1:48 Scale, Airfix Hawker Hurricane
I got this one done, my third for this year! A honey of a kit, loaded with detail and great fit! Loved building this model and I'm gonna have to pencil in another one, just because!
I hope you like the end result, and I saw earlier, one [...]
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.

This is my version of the Airfix 1/72 Armstrong Whitworth Whitley. For a good bit of history about the Whitley look up Tom Cleaver's article here on imodeler.
I found the kit to be an enjoyable build. Even though the fuselage is [...]
Airfix 1:48 Scale Hawker Hurricane Mk.I
Hey Folks
Here are a few WIP pictures, updating what's been done on this kit. She's a real beauty!
I have some touching up to do before I apply the first gloss coat. Then it's decals, second gloss coat, and then the flat coat and [...]
Avro Shackleton MR.2 in 1/72 by Airfix
This is the first major 1/72nd kit I have built since around 1985: usually I do 1/48 & 1/32 scale, however the Shackleton has always been a favourite & at just over half a metre wingspan it's not small! Beautifully moulded & [...]
