Airfix Warrior 1/48.

Well it appears I'm the first to finish in Enzos 1 year group build. 

So here's my contribution which was planned  for the British Armour Group build. Airfix Warrior pretty much done from the box. Pictured in dessert camo on Salisbury Plane.

This was a very enjoyable Build and all parts fitted together easily with the outer panels benefiting from accurate assembly of the inner parts. 

Hopefully I'll get a couple of figures in the turret one of the days.

Yanks Abroad:  Yugoslav Airlines DC9-30

Converted from the 1/200 scale Hasegawa DC9-40 kit (which has a longer fuselage), and finished using a combination of Liveries Unlimited and Lift Here! decals.

 

The build thread is here, if you would like to see more.

This was fun even if I am not huge fan of short-run kits.  It's still the only way to find obscure aircraft.

What's next?  Thanks Enzo. I like this GB.  It runs all year!  Wasn't there a Hawker GB a while back?  I think I might have to build another Hurricane...maybe stay in South America while I'm at it! 😉

Here is the WiP thread...

 

I think that Pegasus makes (made?) the best of the short-run kits.  That's only my opinion, of course.

 

Albatros W4, 1916...somewhere along the North Sea coast...near Zee Bench...😉

        Hello everyone... This is my build of Trumpeter’s North American F-107 for the North American portion of this build. It represents aircraft 55-120 which was seconded to NACA IN 1957. NACA/NASA used the aircraft until 1959. My scheme though fictional was taken from other century series aircraft used by NASA until the 1970’s. I just theorized my Whif based on an theoretical extended length of use.

My entry into the Anything but Injection theme.

 

British Navy Type 45 destroyer HMS Duncan escorting Russian Frigate Admiral Gorshkov through the Channel. A pretty mundane occurrence these days, although the big Type 45s are quite rare on such duties now.

 

Made from the GHQ 1/2400 wargame whitemetal miniatures, nicely detailed (even including separate microscopic helicopters!)  although lacking in decals which were cobbled up from the stash. The sea base is my own creation with Vallejo acrylic and AK water effect gel.

Schreiber-Bogen card lighthouse ver much in the Anything But Injection moulding camp. Thin card, a very sharp knife and modern card glue along with some touching up paint at the end. 

Build thread is here, 

 

Thanks to the all powerful Enzio for the idea of this GB area. And thank you for stopping by to look, enjoy a trip to a German lighthouse- it might be as close as you get this year!!

One more in the Anything but Injection category.

 

The subject, a two-seat military version of the Bleriot XI that was virtually omni-present in the world of aviation in the early 1910s. This particular one was a Serbian Bleriot, used in combat missions for most of 1915. 

 

The model is scratch built in 1/72 with its Gnome 80 hp engine from smallstuffmodels and decals from Blue rider.
