I'm probably going to be giving these away to the local Air Cadets pretty soon so I decided to give them a dusting and take a few piccies before I do. That and share my work with a wider audience.

These should need no introduction


Airfix Meteor III. (The fuselage roundel has gone a little dingy since I built it.)


Hasegawa Me.262


MPM Kikka


Pioneer/PM Yak 15


Special Hobby Yak 17


KP Yak 23


MPM Bf.109V1


Academy P-40B (I see that I missed some dust)


MPM P-47H


Academy P-47


Academy P-47 Bubbletop (also needs more dusting)


And lastly the Matchbox Provost

I'm sure they'll appreciate them Jessica. A great idea.

I have limited space so if I want to build more, the old ones have to go somewhere. These models are between 10 and 20 years old; I've had my enjoyment of them so now they can go and brighten up some kid's life, and maybe inspire them to start modelling

When I was younger I solely built 1/72 armour, planes for war gaming and such. Was slowly running out of room. Thus I sold off all my armour to another war gamer and gave away my planes to a young child of the place we held the club. Must have had at least 20+ planes.
