lasermonkey Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Well, I manged 14 in total last year: Airfix Spitfire IXc Airfix Spitfire I (x2, one of which finished as a PR.1E) Italeri Spitfire Vb ICM Bf 109E-4 Hobbyboss La-7 Hobbyboss Mustang III Revell P-47D Hobbyboss Bf 109G-2 trop Revell Fw 190A-8 (x3) Hasegawa Fw 190D-9 Matchbox Lysander II All 1/72. I have to do all my model making at work, as my workbench is currently full of broken, vintage, analogue synthesiser. I have no facility for using an airbrush, so I'm having to use a hairystick. I think I have some way to go until I get anywhere near mastering brush-painting. Anyway, I have managed to bring a few of them home and did some "quick and dirty" (in some cases, quite literally!) pics. Matchbox Lysander II: ICM Bf 109E-4 Revell P-47D Italeri Spitfire Vb Airfix Spitfire IXc All were built pretty much straight-from-the-box, except, in some instances, for decals. The Spit VB has a replacement canopy from the spares box and the Spit IX has Airwaves exhaust stacks. The Spit IX was slapped together pretty quickly, just to see what it was like. I really enjoyed building that one, and have another on the go at the moment. And yes, I should have dusted them before taking the pics! Cheers, Mark.

baldrick Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Looking good. The Matchbox Lysander is a lovely kit, got a couple in the stash, must build one. Dave.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 (edited) Nice, clean build, and thankfully without overstated weathering. Good work, congrats! The ICM Bf 109 E is possibly the best and most accurate 1:72nd Emil, at least that I know of. Maybe it's a bit underrated, even?

F-32 Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 Bloomin marvelous! I managed to finish a staggering 0 models! Better luck this year I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 A fine sellection there. Hope we get to see the others as well. Took a good look at the Airfix Spitfire IX as I have one in the stash and plans to add at least one more. Certainly looks like a Spit to me.
