"AIRFIX HAS RELEASED A FASCINATING TIME-LAPSE mini-movie for your delectation. The subject is the recent 1:72 scale Fokker E.II Eindecker, and very good it looks too.


SMN report: As you see on the video (below) there's been a lot of effort put into the production values, and much care has also been put into the model itself, which looks most satisfying.


In fact for this builder, the video reveals an exercise in alternatives. Shall I build a World War I subject and put in maximum effort on the wiring side? Or shall I sneakily buy a pre-built diecast model with all the hard work done for me? Hmmm… decisions, decisions…."

I saw that video and its companion piece on the BE.2c just last night. Great job on the model and fantastic stop-action filming.

There's no question for me as to the choice, as I play the air-war game I do just so I can build the models.

My question is this: January has come and gone. WHERE ARE MY MODELS???!!!
