Welcome to Scale Modelling Now’s Airfix Finished Aircraft Reviews, the definitive destination for model builders seeking detailed, inspirational build reviews of Airfix aircraft kits. Whether you’re a newcomer picking up your first Airfix kit or a seasoned modeller looking for fresh techniques and finishing tips, this page brings together a curated collection of full — finished — model reviews, many accompanied by high-definition video demonstrations.
Here you will find step-by-step walkthroughs, in-depth accounts of painting, weathering, construction challenges, decal work, and finishing touches. Each review is authored by experienced modellers who share not just the successes, but also the lessons learned, workarounds, and “gotchas” encountered along the build path. The gallery is packed with real-world photos, close-ups, and side-by-side comparisons to highlight techniques in action.
From classic World War II fighters to Cold War jets, and from 1:72 to 1:24 scale, this collection showcases the breadth of what Airfix has to offer. Browse builds by model, scale, or era to see how others have tackled these kits and to spark ideas for your own projects. You’ll also discover tips on adhesives, painting, masking, and finishing — all grounded in practical experience.
Dive in, explore completed builds, and let these reviews guide your next Airfix aircraft project. Whether you want to replicate a historically accurate scheme or experiment with creative weathering, these finished reviews are rich with knowledge, visual inspiration, and honest assessments. If you’re ready to build with confidence, this page is your launch point — enjoy, learn, and get inspired.
