Scale Model World 2022 was something I’ve looked forward to since Scale Model World 2021. Last years show was a massive deal for me. It was the first one since I returned to model making after a not insignificant break, and also due to the pandemic that we’d all endured for years at that point….

KP Avia B-35 in 1/72
The Avia company today is no longer a part of aviation like it was back in the post Great War years. A huge industry in central Europe, the Avia company made some iconic aircraft – but today’s subject was never one of them . Let’s explore this lost aviation piece and the kit that KP…
KP Models 1/72 M-345; Frecce Tricolori Style
I thought I’d long finished this series; making every single Frecce Tricolori plane – something I did after having already completed the Patrouille de France. I opted for the Italeri boxset (which is a combination of an Academy F-86, Revell G-91, and Italeri/Supermodels MB-339) originally however knew at some point I’d need to do the…
Lincoln Model Show; New Looks, Cosy Vibes
Despite spending much of my childhood visiting family in Lincolnshire and refusing to eat sausages that aren’t of the Lincolnshire variety, I somehow never did Lincoln model show. I know, I’m as shook as you are…so this year I was invited to the show and saw it as a sign to attend. Having had my…
St Ives Model Show 2022
Located in East Anglia is St Ives, home to the model show hosted by Brampton Model Club. The largest single day show in the area I was extremely curious to how the show. It took me about 3 hours to get there and I arrived at 11:30. Doors opened at 10, but luckily the venue…
Airfix Spitfire MK1A – 1970s Tooling
Airfix is a brand with a rich history, one that is very closely associated with the Spitfire and it’s ever growing presence in the modelling world. Though newer tools of this kit have come to pass in recent years I was very curious about the edition with my favourite box art. So….what do we get?…
Small but Mighty; Boscombe Down Aviation Collection Model Show 2022
Boscombe Down Aviation Collection (BDAC) is somewhere I’ve heard about but never been too. Located closer to my family than myself, it’s somewhere I always said “I need to go there” at some point. When the opportunity arose to go from a relatives home to there (an hour instead of four hour drive) I decided…
Airfix Junior Phantom
The Airfix Phantom, nigh, the entire Airfix Junior range is just so 1990s it hurts. From it’s colour palette, marketing style, and comic rear box panels – it was a product very unique for ‘models’. As a child when this came out it really made an impact as a range I remember – though no-one…
KP Models – Avia S-199 [1/72]
The below article is a summarisation of t the above video. I’m trailing this as I am struggling to make long form content and do these as well. The video is a much nicer way to enjoy this content, so try that if you haven’t already! The Avia S-1999 is a Frankenstein; a plane that…
Bristol Blenheim – the Ski Savvy Bomber – Ark Models/Eastern Express 1/72
The Bristol Blenheim came from a civil contest to create the worlds fastest airliner. It was designed for grace and speed. At it’s time it definitely succeeded. With a roaring 30s design and engines that purr, the Blenheim was a defining moment for Bristol. Though the aircraft itself may not be the most loved it…
