Just arrived, new Airfix Spitfire Mk Vb
For winning the random draw for the last month I received the Airfix Spitfire Mk Vb. Here is the box up on my Spitfire shelf in the study. The molding is excellent and the instructions appear to be CAD generated. Now I need to move the [...]
Airfix 172 Lightnings
Carrying on my Airfix love affair, I eagerly waited the new Lightning when it was released. I have built several of the 1/48 scale ones and they were/are superb models and a delight to build.
I asked Santa for an F-2A when it was first [...]
Airfix 1/72 Harriers
I have been an Airfix fan for many years and in recent times their new moulds just keep tempting me to buy and build.
The Harrier kits are excellent, well detailed and an enjoyable build.
Pre-war Spitfire

Another old Airfix kit build. The Magister is such a unique bird that I had to build it, but didn't like the NMF or other French livery. Finally ran across the IsraDecal offering of decals for Israeli versions and I was good to go!
The [...]
Finally got round to making the stand.
Make my own stands for aircraft. I mostly use coffee sticks but I'm trying to be more inventive and upcycle other things as well. This is the latest for my 1/72 Red Arrows Gnat. First Jet I've finished and quite happy with the result. [...]
Scale Modelworld – New releases by Airfix
Airfix surprised today with an incredible array of new and projected kits at their Telford stand. There's really too much to describe here, so we'd rather let the pictures speak for themselves. Looking forward to everyone's comments... [...]
Icelandic P-40C in 1/72
I started the Airfix 1/72 Hawk 81A-2 about the time it hit the U.S. shores (December 2012!), planning to build an RCAF Tomahawk. I had it all together by mid-month... and then it sat... and sat. AMS got the better of me and I couldn't [...]
