Airfix Time







I have been having some fun with a couple of the new Airfix kits. The Sea harrier FA.2 and the Mig 15 have been on my workbench for about 10 days each.

The mig is an absolute gem, i can't remember enjoying a 1/72 kit like this before. I chose to do the Hungarian option.
The sea harrier is also a good kit but is let down by some rather chunky sprue attachments, in fact so much so that at one point i had to recover the kit from the bin after it had been painted. On Saturday i decided to put the decals on to see if i could regain some faith in the kit. It worked !.
The Hunter is from Revell and it was £4.99 in Modelzone , what a bargain. Hopefully i can get these 3 finished this week. I am going to the RAF museum at Hendon on Wednesday with some friends from work and then I'm going to take them into the Hannants London shop.
