Airfix Hurricane IV RP from 1957. Vac form canopy, new pilot (both missing), air intake from sprue, some decals replaced, and finally rocket trails from stretched clear sprue and cotton wool. Finished in Humbrol 106/116/64.

The swastika is from an Xtradecal sheet - the only after-market item!

Not the most detailed kit I've built in the last few years - to make up for it the 1/32 Revell beastie is in my stash. But don't look out for that any time soon!

Hi all,

This is the Matchbox 1/72 B-17 built as per my youth - on newspaper on the kitchen table with a pair of nail scissors, a nail file, a razor blade and no filler or paint. I built it from TWO kits which happened to be moulded in different colours of plastic for the same sprues. Silliness, pure silliness...

These were supposed to be here at saturday night too, but obviously they weren´t, so here´s another take... although they aren´t very different than the first ones.

Frog Bristol Beaufighter Mk IF strikefighter, somewhere in the Mediterranean 1941-42, maybe... Built here
