Airfix 1/72 Hawker Hurricane Mk.I 90th first flight anniversary build
Hello chaps, Well “best laid plans” and all that, despite my quick start I’ve had limited bench time since the last update so the build has slowed down and I obviously wasn’t able to complete it for the anniversary date 😔. I’ve managed some better progress this week though and everything has...- Geoffers

IBG 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire PR Type A/B/E
Bit more done this morning. Just the oil cooler/radiator to add then fill in the gun barrels on the wings. After that it will be time for some gap filling/clean up before it’s time for paint. Thanks for looking 👍 Geoff.- Geoffers

IBG 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire PR Type A/B/E
I’ve been plugging away at this over the last couple of days. On the original aircraft the guns were all removed to save weight. As IBG have moulded the wing to be able to be used in the various other marks of Spitfire they intend to release they have moulded it with the shell ejector chutes in...- Geoffers

Airfix 1/72 Hawker Hurricane Mk.I 90th first flight anniversary build
No update but I thought this may be of interest 😊 I went for a short break in the Windsor area a few weeks ago. I was very surprised to come across this in the riverside park in Windsor 😀 It’s a life size replica and is to honour the designer of the Hawker Hurricane, Sir Sidney Camm. He was...- Geoffers

Airfix 1/72 Hawker Hurricane Mk.I 90th first flight anniversary build
Hi chaps, Ive been pushing on with this since my original post as I want to try and get it finished for the actual anniversary date and also to clear the decks ready for PaulTs 4x4 group build. So for a change this one starts with the undercarriage bay which is built up from x5 parts joined to...- Geoffers

Here’s our pooch, Ted 😊 He’s a Beddlington Terrier/Poodle cross and has just turned one year old. He’s a real live wire and very comical at times 😀 Geoff. -

IBG 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire PR Type A/B/E
Bit of an update 😊 It’s taken a while to paint the various cockpit components. I’ve also added the multitude of tiny stencil/placard transfers. Most of them won’t be seen but I wanted to add them for completeness and to show what you get with the kit. If I was to build another one I probably...- Geoffers

Airfix 1/72 Hawker Hurricane Mk.I 90th first flight anniversary build
Hello Chaps, As Colin has kicked his Hurricane Anniversary build off I thought I’d better post mine up. Shame we couldn’t get a GB going but quite understandable I suppose as we have had a recent Hurricane GB. I’ve chosen the little brother to Colin’s build so should be a bit less to do...- Geoffers

IBG 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire PR Type A/B/E
Hello Chaps, Having finished my Battle of Britain GB entry I decided to have a go at this recently released beauty 🙂 It covers the early versions of photo reconnaissance Spitfires and is very detailed. Hence a very stuffed box of plastic. It reminds me of Eduard kits in that it has...- Geoffers

Hello Chaps, First up a big thank you to PaulT for arranging this group build. The kit was originally tooled by Hasegawa but has been re-released with new transfers and paint masks. As you may expect from a Hasegawa kit it has been a pretty straightforward build. Build thread here...- Geoffers

4WD GB idea
Happy? Yes, it sounds good Paul, I’m looking forward to trying something different to my usual aircraft builds. Still going to have an RAF theme though as this is my intended build. I’m pretty sure it’s 4 wheel drive so hope it’s suitable. Geoff.- Geoffers

Ammo Lock n Load weathering pencils
I’ve been looking at getting some of these. Does anyone on here use them and if so are they any good. I’ve tried the AK wreathing pencils but the lead seems a bit hard /brittle are these any better? Cheers, Geoff.- Geoffers

It’s been like Christmas come early at Geoffers Towers this week due to the arrival of some pre-ordered kits 😊 First to arrive, not a pre-order but a bargain buy from Airfix’s Club members sale. Followed by this little order. Then the main event. The Wessex looks very nice but the... -

This is my team 😊 I went to my first game when I was four and have been in love with them ever since. I was a season ticket holder for a while but working lots of weekends put a stop to that. I still manage to go to a few games each season. This week is the 125th anniversary of us playing at...- Geoffers

Return of the carpet monster
You need to put a saucer of milk out and solemnly ask the house Pixies to help find the missing part. It always works for me, honest 🤪🤪 Geoff.
