White giants, easy build? Airfix 1/72 Victor & Vulcan

Homogeneously painted models bring a promise of an easy build. Yet, overall white paint cover is a wolf in a sheep skin. Not only that the model requires repeated coating to cover the darker colored plastic, but also extra care to [...]

1/144 Trumpeter Vulcan B2

The Avro Vulcan was a quad engined delta wing tail-less jet nuclear bomber designed for the RAF. It was part of the trio of bombers that made up the UK's V-Force (V for Vengeance) as part of the UK's nuclear strike force. The Vulcan [...]

Airfix Avro Vulcan, 1/72nd scale, XM607, Falklands conflict

Inspired by reading Rowland White's book "Vulcan 607" recounting the history of the "Black Buck" missions during the Falklands conflict, this is the 1983 vintage MPC kit No. 1-4552 issue of the Airfix Avro Vulcan The [...]

Airfix 1/72 Vulcan B.2

The new tool Airfix Vulcan is superior in every respect (unfortunately, also for the price) to the original issue dated back in 1983. The build is straight forward. However, the massive model size poses challenges along the build. Your [...]

Avro Vulcan BMk2 (Airfix 1/72nd new tool)                         ​

Avro Vulcan 1/72

This has to be one of my finest models and I never expected it to be. It is an Airfix kit and had its fair share of problem, but now looks great and is a great addition to my room. I decided to sharpie over the cockpit instead of keeping [...]

It’s Not Spock

Inspired by the new-tool Airfix Vulcan, which I immediately put on pre-order the day that was possible, I pulled the GWH 1/144 Vulcan K. 2 out of the stash as my last build of 2019. On the whole it’s a nice kit for 1/144 scale. The [...]

Avro Vulcan B2 1/144 (GWH+Shelf Oddity)

This is my rendition of the early Vulcan B2 XH556 depicted as in No.230 OCU Finningley, ca 1962. The Pit-Road/GWH kit and excellent Fundekals decal set inspired me to tackle the Vulcan subject. To portray the early B2 airframe the kit had [...]
