1/72 Airfix Supermarine Spitfire F Mk.22 + Eduard PE set
AndyC replied to PlaStix's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
I love a Griffon engined Spit and this Mark is my favourite...that laminar-flow wing and the sheer brute power up front...great -
1/48 Su-33 Flanker D, Russian Naval Aviation.
AndyC replied to DaveJL's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Superb work as ever Dave -
Nice work. I did one for the Inter-War GB a few years ago. Agree with your comment on the decals, they need a lot of work to get the gunge off them.

Lovely model of easily the most graceful of the 109's (and rumoured to be a pilot's favourite too)

Blackburn Beverley - Mikro-Mir 1/144

That C-130 comparison shot is really quite striking. I can just remember the gate guard at Hendon. -
Love it Dave - great work

Brilliant work...enjoyed today...highlights were the Finnish F-18, the Romanian MiG-21 and the AV-8B+'s again. How noisy is that F-35??????? -
RIAT 2019 Friday to Monday (Final Update - I promise!!)
AndyC replied to Alpha Delta 210's topic in Aviation Photography
Love the AV-8B pics...the landing was a highlight, all that spray and steam! Left as the A-400 was taking off as it was obvious it was write-off for the day -
RIAT 2018 Friday to Monday (final update 22/07)
AndyC replied to Alpha Delta 210's topic in Aviation Photography
Stunning set of pics as ever AD...I may not do much (any) modelling these days, but I thought RIAT was a great show and you've captured the essence of it mate...I went Friday and Saturday -
3 days at RIAT 2017 (Updated 23/07/17)
AndyC replied to Alpha Delta 210's topic in Aviation Photography
Great shots as ever and thanks. Saturday am was so disappointing to have missed the Midnight Hawks, Typhoon, Belgian F-16, Spanish F/A-18 and Raptor - I was lucky to see all those on Friday. Highlights once it cleared after lunch were the SoloTurk, the Rafale, the Flanker and the C-27J doing a full roll... -
3 days at RIAT 2017 (Updated 23/07/17)
AndyC replied to Alpha Delta 210's topic in Aviation Photography
Was a great day - going tomorrow with the wife this time. Impressed with the F-22 today. Great shots as usual, mate. Look forward to the updates -
In the 8 years since returning to the hobby, this is the first that I've struggled. A combination of work (16 weeks away, all week, in Lancashire) and just a gradual ebb in my interest in playing with plastic meant that I've done nothing beyond July this year. I also didn't make Telford, for the first time in a long time, nor any other UK shows apart from Avon and Salisbury. I did make Prague again but actually enjoyed going to 4 Czech league football matches more than the superb show they put on there.. To be honest I haven't missed it either as I've been watching a lot of non-league footie (my other hobby). I will probably pick up a scalpel over Christmas as I'll have the grandkids there and they will want to build something. One thing IS certain, is that I'm going to flog off a lot of my 1/48th aircraft stash and concentrate on smaller stuff, AFV and subs and my occasional quirky stuff. Who knows what 2017 will bring...anyway here's what I DID finish in order of completion... #1 - Hasegawa Egg Plane P-40 #2 - Eduard 1/48 Bell X-1 probably my favourite for the year #3 - Revell 1/48 F-5F for the F-5 GB #4 - Revell 1/48 F-5E for F-5 GB #5 Revell 1/48 F-5E for F-5 GB #6 - Wolfpack 1/48 T-38A for F-5 GB #7 - Airfix 1/72 Vampire #8 - Tamiya 1/35 Universal Carrier II #9 - Special Hobby 1/48 F2G-1 Super Corsair for the F4U GB - my second favourite finish for the year! #10 - Italeri 1/48 OH-13 for the Helicopter GB II #11 - Zvezda 1/35 GAZ-AA #12 - MikroMir 1/35 Sprengboot #13 - Trumpeter 1/48 Spiteful #14 - Dragon 1/35 SA-9 Gaskin for GB #15 - Trumpeter 1/35 SA-6 Gainful for GB #16 - Aeroplast 1/35 BM-8-24 for GB #17 - Trumpeter 1/48 MiG-3 (early)

1/35 Italeri Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.F1 - update 21/08
AndyC replied to AndyC's topic in The Great Patriotic War Group Build
Unfortunately guys this one is a non-finisher! I'm so busy at work, I've not glued or painted anything for weeks. Ho-hum. Not going to get much better as I'm going to be stuck in Manchester 3 days/week until Xmas. -

Sadly work is manic at the moment so the Panzer IV will NOT be ready by the date. It will appear in RFI at some point
