Nice Steve I'm building the same kit, you decided on which scheme you're gonna do?

My second build for this GB will be the Tigercat alongside my Eduard Hellcat. One of my favourite aircraft in the fact it just looks so good. Kit has been started but below the 25% rule. Planning to finish as the bottom aircraft based at Cherry Point.

Thanks be good to get this one completed!

Guys I've noticed no Tigercat builds so far, just thought I'd check if this wasn't to far gone to enter. I've built the cockpit and painted the interior, that's it so far. Figured this GB would be the perfect time to finish it off.

Not much to report, made a start though. Wings altogether minus photo etched parts, cockpit will be the next focus. Decided on my scheme as well. I shall be doing Death and Destruction VF-83 USS Essex.

Great choice can't wait to see you crack on.

Evening chaps I'll be entering with this little beauty. Hopefully I can finish a GB for once!

Update of progress so far, I'm enjoying these simple kits to be honest. I need to carry on giving them a clean up with some more sanding but should be time for some paint soon.

I purchased the Airfix BBMF collection with the intent to build it for the classic Airfix GB but that didn't exactly go to plan especially seeing the Hurricane is actually a Heller kit, so it ended up spurned and boxed. I think it's about time I resurrected this childhood classic. So starting with the fighters the build will resume. Heres what I plan to build.... The Spitfire Mk ii will be finished OOB. The Hurricane. Will be using an Xtradecal sheet for this scheme. I wish to add this Mk IX to the collection, not sure what kit I'll be using just yet, I know AZ Model do a version with these decals, alternatively techmod produce a decal sheet for this scheme. The lanc I'll be finishing as Phantom of the Ruhr with the different Sqn codes using this Xtradecal sheet. The Lanc will be posed in flight on a stand but the fighters I'm debating displaying on a base as if they're at Connigsby. Anyone know any other decal sheets in 1/72 of BBMF aircraft feel free to let me know.

I actually have the Hobbymaster diecast version of Johnnie Johnson's XIV Spit, once this comes out its days in my collection may be numbered. Would love to do a Belgian kite always thought their roundels looked good on the side of a Spit.

Beautiful build that, always loved the early European schemes on P-47s.

Steve this is class, great idea and well executed. As a kid I loved Duxford and seeing classics like Candyman/Moose and the red rippers bearcat. Looking forward to seeing the next additions to your warbird collection, given me the inspiration to dig out my BBMF set and finish it off.

Nice builds Steve, recently managed to get my hands on an Academy Buchon so thought about doing a double build with my Airfix spit mk 1 especially after the Battle of Britain tribute at flying legends this year.

Nice choice beard, love these Aussie P-40s.

Love your work
