I needed a break from my usual forays into 1/35 Cold War Armour, and decided that I would tackle some of those aircraft kits from my childhood, but bring them up to spec; that is, really regarding finish. The oversized rivets, poor seams, poor fit even, could all stay, yet I would complete them as I’d wished I’d been able so to do when I was a kid. So, not much airbrushing, and I’ve taken the kits at face value, so markings, colour schemes etc will all reflect the period they hail from.
So, a palate-cleanser if you like, but it was actually great fun, and even relaxing, for example, making a kit which say, only had around 20 parts. Anyway, first off, the Airifx Me 109G:
and the Frog Spitfire (which was going to be my entry for a campaign, but as ever, sort of withered on the vine) however, here it is now, just about complete though I wanted to add at least one more figure. We’ll see:
So, faults notwithstanding, I actually had some modelling fun!
