Airfix 1/72 LCVP Higgins Boat

If it goes on or under the wet stuff and doesn't fly, it's in here.

Airfix 1/72 LCVP Higgins Boat

Post by Falcon »

I seem to be having problems lately finishing my builds and I decided to have a bash at building a model from start to finish in one day.

I had a look through the stash and came across the Airfix 1/72 LCVP Higgins Boat.

As yesterday was the 70th anniversary of the D-Day landings, I thought it would be quite a fitting tribute as well as a bit of a break from my usual builds.

Very nicely done, especially for one days work!
Best wishes

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Wherever there's danger, wherever there's trouble, wherever there's important work to be done....I'll be somewhere else building a model!
