  1. Airfix 1:72 scale Henschel Hs 129

    Simple little basic Airfix kit. Plastic is in great shape. Decals not so great shape. I ordered a set from an outfit in England. Just Have to figure out what version to build. Got a small start on the landing gear with a bit of extra detail. The kit legs are essentilly...a stick.
  2. Bristol Blenheim IV question

    Hi! I'd like to know which ww2 2-engine bomber looked almost identical to the Bristol Blenheim. I refer to the length, wing span,engine layout and rudder shape. Sounds a bit strange but I'd like your help. Cheers, Panagiotis.
  3. 1/48 Hobbycraft Junkers 88 S

    Another one from the cabinet. Build many moons ago. THis kit was bought at a model show simply because I never saw the "S" variant of the Ju 88 before. After purchasing some refference books, I soon realized how bad this Hobbycraft kit is. I won't go into the details, but there is a LOT wrong...
  4. 1/48 Sanger "Nakajima Ki-49 - Helen"

    Let's have a look at Sanger's "Nakajima Ki-49 -Helen" Another intersting subject from U.K. based company Sanger is the Ki-49 in 1/48th scale. As it comes as no surprise, this is another Vacu kit with white metal detail parts, a decal sheet for 5 aircraft and a scale drawing of the type. Again...
  5. Airfix 1:72 scale He 177

    My nemisis, this kit has been staring me and daring me down from the hieghts of the man cave for so long I can't recall. It's terrible, got the raised panel lines and giant rivets all over it and horribly devoid of any detail. The decal sheet might as well be printed on papyrus. That being said...
