I finally get around to show my latest build. It took me two months and it really pushed me to the limit, the rigging above all, that is.
The Airfix kit is perfect, amazing detail both on the inside and the outside. Everything except for [...]
And my dad has finshed the next one, after the Swordfish now another iconic British biplane.
Airfix kit oob. The multi-part fuselage turned out slightly warped, so the wings and tailplane alignement isn´t perfect either. Had to let sit [...]
Up until Airfix came with their 1/48th scale Walrus, Classic Airframes' was the best option in that scale. The latter, a limited run kit is work intensive by its nature. Moreover, it is a biplane with complex wing parts assembly and [...]

This is the new Airfix kit built pretty much out of the box with the exception of Classic Airframes decals and Eduard seat belts added. I also had to drill a hole and fabricate an antenna post on the top of the rudder. Odd that this was [...]
This is an old kit, the Special Hobby 1/48 that I started to build in 2017 before seeing the first pictures of the future Airfix in the same scale. I chose to continue my model by trying to raise it to the level of the future Airfix. There [...]
Well, I am stepping WAY out of my "comfort zone" with this one. I have not built an aircraft model of any kind in many, MANY years. I'll be building this one specifically as a review for IMODELER.
This model arrived safely and [...]
