The Spadgent Posted February 19, 2017 Author Share Posted February 19, 2017 Holy moley! I've run out of likes liking all your likes. Thankyou so much for all the kindness. If it wasn't for you guys on BM I'd still be making Tamiya kits and nothing more. You guys really have opened me up to a whole new modelling world. Thanks for that. Johnny like lack. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spookytooth Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Great build John, really nice to see her in RFI. You`ve taken a bog standard Airfix kit and come out with a beaut. Lovely finish, to too overdone, and the extra details added make it stand out. Simon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyTiger66 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Fantastic photos old chap! It looks ready to take off . Best it doesn't as, if it follows history's course, it'll land awkwardly in a turnip field . It's far too pretty for that! Well, not so much pretty, as downright mean looking, ready for a dogfight with a Spit, Hurricane or Farley Fruitbat . All this began with a glass of ale and a caravan . Absolutely marvellous.

clive_t Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Epic build log, and a stellar result. Even allowing for the fact that larger scale models almost invite extras and embellishments to be added, the level of added detail here is crazy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellE Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 An absolutely brilliant build John! I've been silently following along on your build log and watching with quiet awe! You've really done a cracking job and brought this Airfix classic to life! Look forward to seeing what you build next! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitsticker Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Hi Jonny Camra, I hope that you enjoyed a (proper) beer or 2 to celebrate a fantastic build, what a cracker! Tempted (oh so tempted) to try a 1/24 myself but where to put it.... Once or twice I wondered where you were going on this but by heck, it turned out a beauty.....brilliant use of 3D printing by the way Looking forward to the Tiffy build....for once I shall be in at the beginning Cheers Geoff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonl Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Great photos. She looks the biz. I enjoyed following your build and watching this pile of sprues turn into a masterpiece! Bravo sir! L 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbie(kinda) Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Right, now that's out of the way (and excellent thread and end result, might I add), assume you're planning on the equally ancient 1/24 Spit and Hurri?! Should keep you busy for the rest of the year... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exdraken Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Congratulation to this smalish big bird! Like the open motor cowing Any size reference? Must be quite something on the kitchentable!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corsaircorp Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Veeeery nice job, I really like that paint scheme ! Is'nt a Stuka from Airfix at that same scale ? I remember making one, in the '70, still must have some interior parts in a box on the attic... That will be a good next one ? Did'nt it Congratulations, I look at her with a tiny bit of jealousy... Sincerely. Corsaircorp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notty Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 What a beautiful ship! Amazed you've got the old airfix giant looking so classy. I built their 1/24 Stuka about 40y ago this makes me want to do it again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BerndM Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Stunning build with fantastic details. The well executed paint job with a subtle but effective weathering is outstanding. Good work on this old kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spadgent Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 Woot! That's everything for 2016 re-linked. All pictures are now fixed. Moving on to builds from 2017. Johnny 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattlow Posted September 10, 2017 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Missed this first time around... You've done the Airfix kit proud... excellent build. I think you'd like the Stuka. It is, compared to most of the other 1/24s, much more refined (especially surface details). Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
