Bell P-39 Airacobra

P-400. The Guadalcanal Cobra.

Helo. This Eduard kit was build some time ago. Its the weekend edition. Build simply oob and painted with Gunze and Tamiya acrylic paints. The US national markings are painted on it as weathered. Best regards

Eduard's Iron Dog

Eduard's P-39 family were among the very first of their "serious" kits after they made the leap from nice limited-run models to the big leagues. Although it wasn't quite the quantum leap from Monogram's 1969-vintage Airacobra [...]

Vintage Revell P-39 Airacobra 1/46 scale

As I had said in some of my previous posts, following my project to restore or even to build vintage models which bring me back good memories, now I went to this 1955 original Revell mold of P-39 Airacobra. My oldest brother Pedrinho (82 [...]

1/48 Eduard P-39N

1/48 Eduard P-39N Airacobra Profipack kit. I just finished this today. While looking through my stash last month I found this kit partially built in the box. I had started it in 2014 and then put it away probably because I really don't [...]

1/48 Bell P-39L Airacobra, 81st FG North Africa

Built in 2015. Eduard kit, painted with Gunze and Tamiya paints, the Azure is from Model Master. Some discussion about the camo paints of these planes. As far as I know they were initially built for and delivered to the Brits but not [...]

1/48 Hasegawa P-39D-1 Air A Cutie

From the limited Edition Air-A Cutie boxing. A fairly easy kit to build for the most part. Much easier to build than the Eduard P-400 but with less detail (I had built an Eduard P-400 Profipack kit over a decade ago), but if I had to [...]

P-39 Airacobra Kitty Hawk

Another model goes to my shelf. This time, a design that appears at competitions quite sporadically, namely the P-39 Airacobra. The model itself is quite nice, but I added Eduard plates, HGW belts, Master barrels and Eduard exhaust pipes. [...]

“Cobra II” P-39 air racer – 1946 Thompson Trophy winner

"Cobra II” at the 1946 Thompson Trophy Race: The P-39 known as “Cobra II,” was a Bell P-39Q-10BE, AAF 42-20869, assigned to the 430th Army Air Force Base Unit, Ephrata AAB, Washington, a Combat Crew Training Station, in April [...]

THE RED COBRA.

I had no problem building these three 1/48 scale P-39 models as they were all "O.O.B." Like the yellow racer, I had no instrument panel dials nor any of the Waldron p.e. stuff. I used Tamiya paints and the kit decals. The end [...]

My Yellow Cobra Racer.

This 1/48 scale model is made by a different company than what I wrote in my bare metal P-39 story yesterday. I liked the pre-cut mask's for the windscreen, canopy and the door's as they fit perfectly. The modeler, (ME) had the option to [...]
