airbus320 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hi folks, I had a reasonably productive 2017 having got back into the hobby in 2016. Modelling certainly helps pass the long hot summers out here in the desert! Spitfires featured heavily as usual, being my favourite modelling subject! All are 1/48th. Eduard Spitfire IXc (early) built OOB Hasegawa Spitfire VI also OOB Next up was the Airfix Spitfire XII bashed together with a spare Hasegawa fuselage to correct some of the ‘fatness’ of the Airfix kit. Last Spitfire for the year was the ICM Spitfire VII with Ultracast cannons and prop plus a Falcon canopy. Next was the Tamiya Beaufighter TF.X using xtradecal markings for an aircraft of 404 Squadron RCAF. An interior set by Aires was used. I entered the DH group build using the awful Revell Mosquito dressed up with Eaglecals decals and a vacform replacement for the mis-moulded canopy. Having never built a P-51 Mustang in my life I decided this needed to change! First up was the Tamiya Mustang III built as a Polish machine using Techmod decals. Second on my Pony list was the Mustang I conversion by Ultracast using the Accurate Miniatures kit Lastly I thought it was time for the opposition to get a look in so the Hobbyboss Fw190D-9 was next The final model I finished for 2017 was the ICM/Revell Bf109F-4z/trop All in all all quite a productive year! Happy modelling to all in 2018. Thanks for looking, Chris 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
