I don't usually do WIPs, but decided for some reason that I'd make the effort with this one, as it's an unusual subject, not least that it's a helicopter in a proper aviation scale. I bought the Revell kit at a show last year for a good price. The kit is in Revell's new box and style, and it was o...

Hi everyone, This build has been a long, long, time coming but what better time to start it than after a first COVID vaccination! To cut a long story short, over the years I've often seen the helicopters of the Midlands Air Ambulance charity flying over- whether it's coming into the...

Living in Birmingham I see the West Midlands Air Ambulances frequently and have a huge amount of respect for the work they do. This is the Revell EC135 with the Whirlybirds resin Air Ambulance interior and decals for G-OMAA, one of the three helicopters currently in use and normally base...

I'll be jumping in with the Revell 1/144 kit to start with and some decals made by a local. I'll be out of the country on the start date but will dive in when I return!

Good evening all, I've been given the go ahead to release images of my most recent completion which is Revell's new 32nd Sea Hurricane Mk.IIC! The kit is comprised mostly of the existing tooling of the standard Hurricane Mk.IIB, however, it now utilises a new set of wings to add the canon...

I've been looking for a Ferrari 308 kit for some time but they don't seem to come up very often, scouring 2nd hand & new kits, online model shops & that auction site I'd found nothing other than one ridiculously overpriced example in more than a year. Come the end of Feb, this appeared on fleabay fo...

This is the newish revell boxing of their Eurocopter in 1/72. My club was doing a competition where we all built models from James Bond films as Revell bought out the whole range again and as Goldeneye is my favourite Bond movie and one of the best FPS shooter games ever made on N64 (ahhh the times...

Now that the Tamiya jeep is nearly done - just have to spray a matte coat and add the windshields - I'm turning my attention to the Revell 1/48 P-51D. This is a release of the old Monogram kit that was originally released in 1977 and that I built in the early 80s. I'm pretty sure there was limited...

I've just finished building this in the 'Give Peace a Chance' group build, so I thought I'd chuck an RFI up. The backstory for this is a young guy who got out of East Berlin in 1989 with his girlfriend, a suitcase and his Trabant. They spent the winter in Southern Europe and, in the spri...

This is my rendition of the old Revell Starfighter in 1/32 scale. I liked this c/s with the dayglo tiptanks. This was in 1964, accordeon to the decalset by Dutch Decal. Kind regards, Gerben

This is one of my latest builds. The Revell rebox of Monograms F-105G. Very nice kit with raised panellines but good detail. This was painted with mostly Vallejo acrylics and the Revell decals.. There is a great decalset, but it is very prone to silvering....

With the 206 build hitting a problem with the decals I decided I'd try crack on with something else. All the parts seem to come neatly inside one big plastic bag, containing sub-bags... Instructions are usual modern Revell affair, lots of decal choices,...

Even though I mainly make things with propellers, I actually signed-up to this Group Build because I have more Starfighters than I ought to have. Anyway, I'm going to assemble this one: It's the Revell kit and i believe is has an issue with the front canopy shape (which...

Well, this is me popping my GB cherry! The title of this GB immediately took me to the late 80s and the fall of the Berlin Wall: giving my 18 year old self hope for a brighter future. If I remember correctly, it was a classic car show at the Oulton Park Circuit - I'm guessing in 1990 - where I first...

This model is a perfect example for how sometimes the best plans fail, only to give nice, if different results. My stash elimination project consists of 66 kits collected between 25 and 30 years ago, some boxes with third party detail sets and decals, and a some-time-past-middle-aged man with the fi...

Hello fellow modellers, welcome to my first WIP! The kit I’m working on is a Revell 1/32 Mirage III: This was a surprise Christmas present from my wife, I hadn’t built a single model for over 30 years! So, I was to build this shiny Mirage, but to be honest it didn’t...

Hello, this WIP is about a Catalina. I got a 1/48 donated for a rebuild. I will turn it in a Dutch Catalina of no 321 Squadron Royal Netherlands Naval service serial Y-45 in Rose Bay, Australia. The kit was in parts, badly torn apart with a lot of broken parts. What I can see is that it's almost com...

Revell's 1/72 P-47M is a great little kit, lots of detail packed in it and no major fit problems. I've heard some criticisms that it's a bit too `fat' in the belly, which is relatable so I don't mind. The particular boxing I had was one of the first ones, from around 1999, so almost no flash. Most o...

I've recently mentioned this in the Modelling and purchase plans/wishes for 2025 thread. It's a kit I bought for my dad to build in the hope that it would be good at a larger scale. The reality was, it was just too complex and fiddly and in the end he barely got started on it. He died in November an...
