Westland Whirlwind G -AGOI
Lazlo Woodbine replied to Lazlo Woodbine's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks, working on the silver one now as well as the cannon armed trial a/c as I don't like to waste spares. -
Another airfix Whirlwind converted to the prototype. I reshaped the nacelles, added new exhausts on the wing, reshaped rudder and scratchbuilt pitot. I made some mudguards for the barracuda resin wheels and reshaped the canopy but might replace it with a vacform as it still shows flat on the inside. Used revell panzer grey for the overall colour.

Been off for a while and trying to work out how to link photos, here's an airfix Whirlwind as G -AGOI using the spare decals from a special hobby kit.

Still got the model in bits somewhere, might get it out and redo it. Gary

Hi i am looking to build/convert a Mirage III and IIIA in 1/72, is there any references or plans available? Google tends to send me to the Mirage I(would like to do one of these too at some point) or Australian Mirage. Thanks Gary

1/48 D H Vampire FB 5, 607 Squadron
Lazlo Woodbine posted a topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
This is the Classic Airframes kit with a replacement Aeroclub fuselage it was given to me partly built, I also got a spare Alley Cat canopy and wingtip lights which was cut to fit, and it should match the 3 Alley Cat Ines I have to build(also as 607 sqn aircraft) The aircraft represents one from RAF Ouston and used Alley Cat decals which were nice but I found the mauve colour to be too light so painted it ww1 mauve, it was brush painted with acrylics. I have attached a photo of the original from Cold War Shield by Roger Lindsay. thanks for looking Gary- 10 replies

1/72 Blackburn Botha
Lazlo Woodbine replied to Lazlo Woodbine's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks for the kind words, the kit is by someone called PH Model from the Czech Republic. I managed to get another one which will be done as a gunnery school one based at RAF Morpeth, but am not sure if it's still available, I got my second from lonewulf models a few years ago. Here's the box art. Gary -
1/72 Blackburn Botha of 608 Squadron RAF Thornaby from a resin kit bought years ago go about £12 at the Scottish Nationals about 12 years ago, had started it but left it as I wasn't too confident about the transparent bits, added early Beaufighter wheels from Aries as they look better. Painted by hand and brush using revell aquacolour, markings from spares. Have added some pics of the build and a photo of the original from Flypast magazine. Thanks for looking Gary

Excellent, thanks for that.

Hi This Is the NKR kit which came in a very yellowish resin (think piccalilli) have had it for years and recently got around to finishing it. It is quite a basic kit and looks very similar to the current Planet Resin kit. I sprayed it with Tamiya gloss aluminium and hand painted the rest. Decals were from spares. Thanks for looking Gary

Matchbox 1/72nd Lancaster
Lazlo Woodbine replied to Mancunian airman's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Excellent, love it. -
I don't think there's any aftermarket for the kit as I am doing an IAC one too, Number 243 was a replacement fitted with wheel spats and tinted windows. Probably would try some 1/144 airliner wheels as replacements. Gary

Airfix Junkers Ju87B Stuka, 1/48 scale...
Lazlo Woodbine replied to Artie's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
That's very nice. Gary -
Finally started to do 607 Sqn in 1/48, this is the new tooling with Eduard brassin wheels and markings from various sheets. Still have a few small things to do to finish it. I have added the photo I took it from which can be found on the Northern Eagles site. Next up is a silver Spitfire 22

If you have a spare Crusader you could use the wheels from it instead of drilling. -
