Hello all, I've just joined although I am no longer a plastic modeller. I did start a long time ago when Airfix first brought out the Spitfire in a poly bag with a folded card at the top, I bought my first one from Woolworths for 2 shillings ( 10p in new money). My reason for joining is that I...

Good Afternoon, All, Well, my work schedule just steps all over my time to the point where group builds do not work for me and that is my loss. However, I want to attempt to stay more active on the site so I am going to open a start to finish thread on Airfix's new 1/48 Hurricane kit. Please...

Back to basics with an £8 Airfix new tool. Add some after market exhausts and cannons.

Hi Guys, I'm not much of a modeller and until recently I have not spent much time at all in the last 20 years making models. When I was a teenager, like the rest of you I suspect, I had model planes all over the place, but my modelling got to a certain level and has been there ever since. I...

Hi folks, Here's my first foray into transport aircraft builds. It's an old Airfix mould kit circa 1960, yup, a kit which was around even before most of us were here. It was re-issued by Airfix a few years back and sad to say was not updated accordingly. Besides from the propeller options...

Finally got this one underway after finding very little freetime of late. I've started the detail painting and hopefully will get the fuselage etc together tonight. I thought I'd include a pilot figure for a change and I'm quite pleased with the results so far. I realise that a 1950's RN Seafire...

ok, call me old and feeble brained. I could have sworn that I read a a build in progress write up on the 1/24th Airfix Mossie. However, every search I have tried does not find one. Am I slipping? Dale
