Previously built Models

Post by JohnRatzenberger »

Here post images of previous builds of 'Aussie Wings' GB eligible aircraft.


In fact, I will lead off with one of my most favorite aircraft, kits, and completed models -- the Classic Airframes 1/48 Avro Anson Mk.1 Early in RAAF markings; here is a build review

John,

I love the finish on your Anson. Very smart.

One RAAF job only for me thus far. Spitfire Vc from the Airfix kit, with a mixture of kit and aftermarket decals (the latter cracked badly once on and varnished!).

Oh, and that's the original Airfix wing; no thin Aeroclub AM for me; just lots and lots of sanding of leading and trailing edges - the wing chord is probably a few mil too short due to that!

regards,
Martin R

Airfix 1/72nd Mosquito FB MkVI.

Just a quick build, from a kit that came as part of a gift set, and finished with a spray can.

Then, mounted on a block of pine with a dowel for support. Must remember to put a label on that placard.

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