Paul A H Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 A few of these were started in 2011, but they were all finished this year - honest! There are more here than I remember finishing too First to roll off the production line was my build review take on Revell's new B-17G, converted to an RAF Fortress III. Next was a quick build review of the 3D Kits conversion parts for the Airfix Spitfire Mk.IX. Then came the Cyberhobby Sea Vixen. Derided by many, built by few, but this was actually the most enjoyable model I have built for review all year. Of course having the Pavla corrected radome and cockpit helped! With a toddler running around the house, modelling time has been in short supply, so I've done quite a few single-engined fighters this year. This is the old Hasegawa Ki-61 Tony. Another review kit. Another pair of kits that were started eons ago but only finished this year. Hobbyboss's Typhoon and Akula class Soviet subs in 1:700 scale Next up was a kit I picked up for a few quid at the Hamex show in November 2011. Hasegawa's rarely seen Mosquito. Good fun and viceless to build. Another build review in the shape of Revell's 1:72 Ju 88A-4, along with three Eduard etch sets. The last one of the year was probably my favourite. Hasegawa's excellent Grumman Hellcat, finished as a Martlet. As someone correctly pointed out, this particular aircraft shouldn't have wing folds though. Oh well 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitfire Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 A great years work, I like all of them but the RAF fortress is really a nice change from OD/NG or natural metal. Cheers Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
