    1/48 Boulton Paul Defiant

    Hi Gang, This is the new tool Airfix Kit. I started it waaaay back when it was first released, then it was put in a box with all my other modelling stuff whilst we moved house. I dug it out over the christmas break and decided it deserved to be finished. The kit itself is lovely, the turret is...

    Jasons 1/48 Eduard Bicentennial Phantom

    I'd like to enter this into the GB. Not sure which scheme I'll do yet although I'm leaning towards the box art. Should be fun, plenty of resin and PE to mess about with... Just got to clear one off the bench and I shall make a start. Jason

    1/48 Eduard MiG-21BIS

    Hi All, 2016 has been a terrible year for modelling. This is just my second completed model of the year. Here is Eduards fantastic MiG-21. It is the Weekend edition to which I added the Zoom PE set. Panted with Tamiya and Mr Hobby Acrylics and weathered with washes and oils. Here's hoping for...

    1/48 Airfix Spitfire Mk.Vb trop.

    Morning All...First build of 2016 complete. Airfix newish Vb kit. Aftermarket decals from a company called AML. Primed with Alclad black and airbrushed with Tamiya acrylic. I wanted to get out of my comfort zone and try a different approach to the usual pre-shading. The technique I've used...

    1/48 Spitfire Mk.Vb trop.

    Hi All. I've had some time away from the bench and most things model related. As always, I find the best thing to reignite my love for this hobby is to build a Spitfire. The kit is Airfix's newish tool Vb. Built nearly oob, although an Eduard harness was added after I took these pics. The...

    1/48 Airfix Spitfire PR.XIX

    Morning All, Not much modelling has been going on lately at Wendall Towers. Life has been getting in the way a little. I needed to do something quick to restore the ol' Mojo. So when in doubt, break a Spitfire out. Started middle of last week and finished off last night here she is...

    Wendall's 1/48 Raspberry Ripple Tornado

    I've been wondering what to do with this kit for a while. I picked it up at the Yeovilton model show last year but I've never liked the kit decals. They're very nicely done, nicely printed, readable to the smallest detail and in perfect register. The scheme just doesn't do it for me. Anyway...

    Eduard 1/48 Hellcat Mk.I

    Good day to you all. Finished this one over the weekend. FN430, No.1844 Sqn FAA, P/O Hannay, HMS Indomitable, August 24, 1944 It's part one of my Hellcat Dual Combo kit, all the usual PE, masks and a couple of sets of very nice resin wheels. Thoroughly enjoyed building it. It goes...

    Airfix 1/48 EE Lightning F.2A

    Afternoon All, Got time to clear another from the bench this week. It is the most recent release of Airfix's 1/48 Lightning although I believe the tooling is from the 90's. I want to begin by commenting on the kit itself. Frankly it is very good indeed, not many parts for an aircraft this...

    1/72 Sword Fairey Gannet AEW.3

    Morning All, Haven't been posting much lately. I've been really busy with a new business endeavour but I have managed to get this one finished. This is the new Sword offering, not the most sophisticated kit but it doesn't build up too badly. No real issues but the lack of clear instructions...

    Wendalls 1/48 Airfix Lynx HMA.8 with BigEd

    This is going to be my effort. I've cleaned down the workbench and boxed up one or two kits that I had on the go. This looks as though it will take a lot of planning, the kit has a very high part count on its own, then chuck in several hundred bits of PE and it could go horribly wrong. I...

    1/48 Airfix Seafire F.XVII

    I'm having a DSG over Sky phase at the moment. I had lots of time in the Man Cave this weekend and managed to get this one finished off. I started it a few weeks ago and got a bit side tracked with the Gannet. It's a relatively new tool and goes together like a charm. Only complaint if there was...

    1/72 Skyraider AEW 1

    Heres a coincidence! After admiring Ian's Skyraider build the other day, I went to my friends house to show him the completed Gannet that he gave me. He liked it and then handed me this and asked if I fancied having a crack at it. So here it is. First ever resin kit I've properly looked at and...

    1/72 Fairey Gannet AS Mk.1/4

    In what little spare time I have at the moment I have been beavering away at this. It was given to me in a freezer bag by a friend, all of the pieces had been removed from the sprues, a couple of small pieces and the arrestor hook were missing as were the instructions. The kit decals were...

    Airfix 1/48 Hurricane

    I am a bit pressed for time (and money) at the moment. Getting married to my amazing fiancée in six weeks so that seems to be filling lots of my free time. I have however managed to sneak enough 'Cave time' to finish this. I have a couple of these in the stash but with the new tool soon to be...

    Wendall's 1/48 Airfix Harrier GR3 Under a Tenner

    Here she is XV778 No.1 Squadron, HMS Hermes Air Group, "Operation Corporate" May/June 1982. I've read some varying reviews of this kit from all over the net some good some really negative! I can only speak as I find however and it was a thoroughly enjoyable build. The...

    Airfix 1/48 Mosquito PR XVI

    With my under a tenner GB Harrier on the home straight, I was wondering what to start next. The 1/24 Typhoon was beckoning but that is a big job that I don't think I'm ready to commit to it yet. So I was browsing the threads for inspiration and a few of you who shall remain nameless (you know...

    Eduard 1/48 Spitfire IXe

    I'm not really sure why but this one has spent the last few months gathering dust on the shelf of doom. I did start a build thread which you can see here. http://www.scale-models.co.uk/community/threads/eduard-1-48-spitfire-mk-ixe-beer-barrels.28496/ All that needed doing were the exhausts...

    Wendall's 1/24 Hawker Typhoon

    This'll be my effort. I bought the Eduard cockpit set but looking at the kit parts it was probably a waste of cash! Also the laser cut fabric harness, hopefully this should be an improvement. The little cardboard box contains the replacement canopy. I wont start building this one until my...

    Wendall's 1/48 Airfix Harrier GR3

    Here's my contribution. Bargain from the Airfix website for £7.99. Hopefully a quick build to help me get my mojo back, l shall be building it wheels up in the corporate scheme. Now I just need it to be new years day.
