    Which model gave you most satisfaction in 2019?

    It has to be this one as it is the only one I managed to complete this year. Definite aim next year to get more bench time.

    Airfix 1/72nd Bristol Blenheim Mk IV

    Forgot I was out of the green/grey for the interior, so started work on the PE in the cockpit while I wait for a delivery. Resting on my home made glue spreader.

    Airfix 1/72nd Bristol Blenheim Mk IV

    Made a start today, but odd in that you do not start with the cockpit, but with the fuselage and wings. The cockpit then added to the front. So the main parts have been primed with Vallejo Surface Primer, and a coat of Humbrol Clear on the Glazing before I start masking. The intention is to...

    Airfix 1/72nd Bristol Blenheim Mk IV

    This will be my next build, hopefully quicker than my Wurger. I will be building the RAF version and using the Eduard PE interior set for the cockpit as there is a lot of glazing.

    Dave’s 1/48 Eduard Fw190A-2

    Nearly there now, all the decals added. They bedded down very nicely hardly any need for the Microsol. Even managed to get the long dotted lines for the upper wing surface on without getting them tangled. I will give it a coat of Humbrol Clear tomorrow, then a bit of weathering before a final...

    Dave’s 1/48 Eduard Fw190A-2

    Some more progress. Mottling done, not heavy on this bird. Not 100% happy with it but with the decals on and some weathering I think it will look fine. Undercarriage added one wheel is a bit off and needs adjusting but the angle of the main leg is good, the kit has a positive location for these...

    Dave’s 1/48 Eduard Fw190A-2

    Bit more work done. Top surface camouflage done, yellow rudder an bottom panel done and the black panels for the exhaust. Next step is the scary one, doing the mottling freehand.

    Dave’s 1/48 Eduard Fw190A-2

    Forgot to post recently, underside now done in RLM76 and masked up and RLM75 just sprayed on top surfaces. Next is to mask for RLM 74 for the camouflage, then the mottling.

    Dave’s 1/48 Eduard Fw190A-2

    She is starting to look like an aircraft now. Generally the fit has been good, but slipped a bit on the leading edge of the wings

    But more progress, wing assemblies painted.

    Dave’s 1/48 Eduard Fw190A-2

    Ok, starting a little late but off the blocks, with the obligatory spruce shots. I will be building option D, which is W. Nr. 0125310 flown by Hptm Josef Priller as CO of III/JG 26 based at Wevelghem in Belgium.

    Dave’s 1/72nd AZ Models Fairey Fulmar MkII

    My first completed build in a while and a little rough around the edges. Went together reasonably well apart from issues with a gap between the fuselage and upper wings, very basic kit with few parts although there I a fret of PE for engine grills and seatbelts (unpainted). The rest of the...

    Eduard 1/72nd Hellcat F6F-3 Profipack

    Finally finished the build. Enjoyed building the kit and it goes together very well. External colours are MRP and these airbrush beautifully, finish is the Winsor and Newton Professional Satin Varnish. For those interested the carrier deck is a self print pdf from Coastal Models.
