Sometimes us modellers get into a bit of a 'high' and build lots of things on the go at the same time. There are many reasons why you shouldn't try to build half a dozen kits simultaneously but alas that's the way it sometimes goes.
The finished examples are below. First up - a pair of Airfix 1/48 Spitfires (both of them have since gone to new homes). The top picture is JH-C - a flyable Spitfire that can be seen (as of 2018) at IWM Duxford. The bottom picture is of the Seafire XVII - one of the later Spitfire models adapted for naval use.
ANOTHER Sea Harrier FA2 (the ongoing battle to trim down the jump jet collection continues).
An Avro Lancaster B I - built up using the Revell tooling. I'm on to an Airfix Lancaster next, so it'll be interesting to see how well it goes together compared to the slightly older Revell one.
Last of all, a Russian MiG-31B. I've never built one of these before and certainly had no idea how big the real thing actually was. It's really big. Even scaled down into 1/72 - this translates into a 'fighter jet' that is bigger than a WW2 bomber.
Coming up next week - another Avro Lancaster (Airfix new tool), a Bristol Beaufighter and Bristol Blenheim.
