Recommended Posts

Wow! 2019 has been quite a year! I have built so many models and learnt so much.

Starting in January,here's my Tupolev Tu144 (98% done just a few bits waiting for a rainy day)

Same kit, built three years apart. No WIP for this one unfortunately.

 

Next up was my Bf109 Emil, the first of my 1/48 Airfix ones

No WIP, but there's the RFI thread

 

Next up was a Spitfire, and playing around with preshading for the first time. Using a pen of course..... When I have a perfectly good airbrush. Doesn't look too bad though to be fair

I also built a Lanc, I haven't taken any photos of the (almost) completed model, so this is a placeholder until then

Then I found some V Bombers on eBay for a good price..............

Although not completely finished, I'll link to the other two WIP threads

 

Built this in a few days to take a break from the Victor

I got my hands on Mikromir's Victor B.1 pretty quickly after release. This is close enough to finish to post here I think

While at a Warhammer event, I got to try out Games Workshop's Contrast paint range. ~15 minutes of work there trying it out, and finishing touches at home led to this.

Another one I need to take pictures of. Placeholder again, this photo is from near then end of the build (although I still need to put on the rockets it's armed with)eca129937f125bbb6afe53a0d6904d59.jpg

 

Blitzbuild for no reason other than I could... And I wanted a new Spitfire right then.

That's a fantastic output Adam I thought the Vulcan nose section a great idea and nice to see a workbench in a similar condition to mine!

Thank you :)
