Popular Post cardiff guy Posted August 8, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2022 As you all probably know this is the Airfix Nimrod. I recently managed to finish it ready for the Avon model show, it's been built almost straight from the box other than the Ali cat canopy and model Alliance decals. Hope you like it.

ColinChipmunkfan Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 I think that is great, superb finish. 🙂 I have this kit in the stash but have not started it. If you don't mind, why the Allycat canopy? Colin 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardiff guy Posted August 10, 2022 Author Share Posted August 10, 2022 Hi Neil the wash is simply in a bottle by floy great stuff and really easy to use, Hi Collin the windows in the Airfix canopy are the wrong shape< I could have lived with it but Ali cat also gives you a nice solution to the slightly raised area around the canopy glass and etched brass windscreen wipers. I hope they are still available as I would like to get another 2. Hi Kev The Britania and Argosy are not mine but are really nice, they are both Mach 2 kits and are a good example of what can be done when you fancy a challenge, Regards Glenn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanm Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Excellent, and in excellent company. An inspiration to get mine out of the stash, but I'll never have the patience to tackle a Mach 2 kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy73 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 That looks fabulous! I have one of these in the stash but have been trying to source the Alleycat replacement windscreen without success. It's the one area of improvement to the kit that seems the least labour intensive! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 A superb build - well worthy of a contest win (did it win?). Very impressive! 👏👏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardiff guy Posted August 17, 2022 Author Share Posted August 17, 2022 Hi Kapman There was no competition this year, that said there was some excellent work on display I wouldn't have won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
