I do not remember when I geht this set. But I remember I was a little dissappointed behause the figures were so tiny compared to my other Airfix (H0/00) figures.
I made this conversation of a "Luftwaffe" officer into a german policeman from the 1980`s. This is the first of two policemen to go alongside with my Bundesgrenzschutz squad (Border police). /media/tinymce_upload/28543304b4a1dd6c51115f3b6de752b5.jpg /media/tinymce_upload/64521fe287849c0ce246af77ea678cc5.jpg
I found my old Star Wars (The Empire strikes back) Playset from the `80s. The box is rather damaged, but the models are quite good and almost complete. The only model missing is the x-wing fighter and maybe some figures. As child I played a lot with this and painted unfortunately Figures and Walkers such as AT-ATs. I´ll think I will strip the paint of this. /media/tinymce_upload/e5e17c06fc2bbf028d50e517b17a3c78.jpg /media/tinymce_upload/62655f8cb15d06c8fa3f1702d94f7638.jpg /media/tinymce_upload/1bd134db1ba9e803324bda5f5eb02495.jpg /media/tinymce_upload/6580809855854b0d88e9085d4eadf0ea.jpg
@ Dad Paul B "Nice work as always Tomek. I am still amazed at how you paint detail which I can't even see on the figures." Thank you! 😀 I would like to see new sets, too. Some modern, oder cold war items.
Some pictures of my yugoslav Spitfire Mk.Vc. Build from an Airfix Vc in 1:72. It flew ca. 1963. /media/tinymce_upload/1516e527d262d0470e7fcd57edf957b4.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/3d85145e864ab6cb639a845813f563c4.jpg/media/tinymce_upload/93fca88141e16e854f17998b4de9abca.jpg
Hi dabhand, thank you for this! Yes I liked and like Airfix Figures very much and this is of the best ones. But I also think now it is time for new Sets. But please, not more of WW2 stuff, it is boring. Every the same, same, same....
Hi Charles,Thank you for your commendation! As you see on the 3rd picture I changed the whole weapon, the head and some pouches I took from another figure. The color is a mix because I was not satisfied with the colors available on the market for a German Bundeswehr Uniform. If I find some HK G3 in 20mm I will do some more conversations. All the best from Germany to you!
