Just off the assembly line is the 1/72 Matchbox Fw 190 A3 (PK-6). It has been updated with parts from an Eduard 1/72 FW 190 Small Parts set. I replaced the kit engine and prop, landing gear and clear parts with items from the Eduard [...]

Mistel Combinations – Mistel 1 & Mistel S2

by Paul Higgins on May 9, 2025 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

These two model sets go back a long way, as many of my kits do nowadays. The Mistel 1, an operational 'flying bomb' variant, was a 2013 build using the current Revell Ju88A-4 kit and a Finemolds Bf109G, worked back to a decent Bf109F, and [...]

Airfix's Dornier Do17Z-2

by Paul Higgins on September 2, 2024 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

Hi, my recent build of this kit was just something to do that wasn't too taxing, and I chose to leave the bomb bay closed off and the flaps in neutral. Easily the best kit in 1/72 scale, this builds up into a very attractive kit and it has [...]
