Hi
Aircraft modeller from Manchester, England - will build models of just about any aircraft (including helicopters) as long as it's an interesting subject doesn't have too many wings and has an attractive colour scheme. Any scale as long as I've got enough space, so mostly 1/72 but I've built a few 1/48 kits lately
actually Manchester isn't all that sunny, in fact it's been known to rain from time to time, so loads of rainy days spent modelling
love:
50s, 60s and 70s jets
research aircraft with bright colour schemes
vacforms (whenever I build up the courage)
odd subjects (got an Airmodel VFW-Fokker 614 I want to build but it'll be a massive job)
good, simple, reasonably accurate kits which give scope for detailing or conversion work - I'll pick a good Airfix kit over an average Hasegawa kit any day
don't love:
low viz grey
F-16s - I've seen far too many at airshows recently, I want variety!
biplanes
quite a few modern Hasegawa kits - too much focus on detail, which can be inaccurate, not enough focus on fit. and no weapons!
the rivets on the revell shackleton I'm converting to an AEW.2
