1970's Nostalgia - Modern Day Manufacturing Standards

Way back in the mists of time. Or the 70's as many prefer to call it, I was a young boy who like many others badly made Airfix model aircraft. Now at the ripe old age of 50 having occasionally dabbled with model making throughout my time working offshore I return to the very first aircraft model that I ever made. It is of course a trip down a winding nostalgic past when things were simpler and life rather less complicated in general. And of course Airfix know this and have deliberately pointed out that this is indeed a new re-tooled version of their original He111 with of course the emotive box art by Roy Cross mentioned. And how can a man of a certain age resist the temptation to remake something of his childhood. I certainly could not.But, don't think that this is Airfix cashing in on an old blokes fading memories. They have created a wonderful model aircraft of the highest standards easily up there with the best. For a period of time I - and many others looked upon Airfix as the mid tier makers compared to the likes of Tamiya but not now. I've made a few of their re-tooled models and frankly I doubt that anyone could make any better.Now, compared to my 1970's version this is a huge leap forward in fit, detail and level of finish. It is also a model that requires a degree of effort and skill to get the best out of because of the detail. The photo I enclose is the second I made because my first effort was not as good as it could have been. This one is better but I already have number three ready to make. I'd like to add that I am trying to improve my skills and accept that if I get it wrong, I'll do it again. That is of course how we learn.So the detail is fantastic. Fit is too. Little in the way of filling to be done and minimal filing of casting flash to be removed. Another huge leap forward over the rather cruder models of my youth. Decals are very good but of course to get the best out of them one needs to use some type of decal fixing liquid. I use Humbrol Decalfix and it works well enough although takes an age to get the decals to break free of the backing paper.Hardest part of this model is the front glass area which is an utter bugger to mask properly to paint it. Took me ages and its not that good so I'll have at it again I guess.Paint is Vallejo acrylics. I use these simply because the bottles are brilliant with non of the nonsense associated with the old tins and most of all I fly to work overseas so no issue with flammable liquids.I have now made a number of the new Airfix kits and frankly, they have all been superb. This is no different. 10 out of 10 for Airfix.

Embalaje dañado.

Bastante decepcionada con la manera en que ha llegado este producto, ya que la caja del mismo viene rota. Esperaba mejor calidad por tratarse de un pedido realizado con Amazon Premium. No lo voy a reemplazar ni devolver puesto que necesito el producto para un regalo y no quiero arriesgarme a quedarme sin él por el trámite, pero desde luego en cualquier otra circunstancia lo devolvería.También he de decir que se trataba de un pedido de varios productos y el resto han venido en perfecto estado.

数少ないP型のキット

比較的珍しいP型のキットで、このスケールではハセガワ以来のキット化です。出来の方はハセガワと拮抗しており、プロポーションは両キットを重ねてもほぼ同じで良好、パーツ嵌合も良好で組み立て易いです。パネルラインはシャープな筋彫りですが、リベット等のモールドは一切ないので、淡白な印象です。機内はハセガワでは省略されている胴体後部まで再現されていますが、完成するとほとんど見えません。爆弾倉扉は開閉選択式ですが、肝心の爆弾が省略されているのはマイナスポイントです。パイロットフィギュア三体が付属し、脚は地上駐機と飛行状態を選択できるので、フィギュアも付かなければ、飛行状態にも出来ないハセガワよりアドバンテージがあり、動翼も別パーツなので動きを出し易いです。デカールは上質なカルトグラフ製で、マーキングは5./KG4と6./KG55の二種が付属しますが、海外キットの常としてハーケンクロイツ(鉤十字)は入っていません。総合的にはハセガワと甲乙つけがたい出来ですが、ハセガワよりかなり高価なので、割高感があるのが残念です。
