Britjet's 2020 - extra 5 completions added

As for everybody 2020 has been a strange year for me, but even though I've worked all year I've managed to get more modelling done than normal. I think it's probably been a distraction from the horrible things happening in the real-world.

If anyone doesn't like the Raspberry Ripple scheme, please look away now! Better still just page down past them. I apologise for the national shortage of red, white and blue paint this year but this may continue to be a problem well into 2021......

Thanks for looking at what I've been up to this year. I hope you all have the best Christmas that it's possible to have at the moment and your 2021 only gets better.

Cheers. The Boulton Paul's were nearly finished at the end of last year but for some reason the paint was taking ages to dry so I left them alone for a while. The SB5 was a quick build as it's a simple kit and one colour - I need to do more like that!

 

All the best.

  • BritJet changed the title to Britjet's 2020 - extra 5 completions added

These are all beautifully made, you've got a good eye for capturing the overall look of a subject. Really like the choice of subjects as well, something different to the usual. A vintage year I'd say 👏👏👏

Thanks, I've always had more interest in the prototypes, tests & trials than in-service/squadron aircraft. I hadn't realised how many completions I'd managed until I started thinking about putting the Yearbook together. It seems back to front but I've worked more hours this year and completed more models than normal!

large variety of interesting models, the FA223 in Luftwaffe livery (instead of after war one tested in UK) is the most surprising in the set!

Congrats!

Raspberry Ripple is one of my major themes and the 748 had to be on the list, I've got the Andover nearly ready for painting but that will be for later in the year. I wonder if Valom might be tempted to do the 748/Andover family at some point? If you ever see the ID Models/Formaplane vacform 748 or Andover don't be even slightly tempted to buy them as they are both horrible!
