Good afternoon, everyone - I hope you are well! After talking about this for a while, my Airfix Anson is now finished! I've enjoyed building this one, so I hope you like seeing it complete, as much as I liked putting it together! Have a great day. :)

thekitbox.org/2025/02/16/a... This weekend has been more about visiting friends than it has, building models. Despite that, I've managed to decal the Anson so maybe next week it will be finally ready for display...

Metallic finishes require an increased degree of preparation if marks in the surface of the plastic are not to show through the thin paint. But how far should you go and when should you draw the line..? thekitbox.org/2025/02/10/a...

A much earlier update today as we are off to the football later on. Today, I look at the Academy Panzer I, with initial impressions and how it stacks up against Tamiya's kit. Oh and I might mention that I've used some preshading today... thekitbox.org/2025/02/05/a...
