ProModeller 1/48 F-84G Thunderjet
A very nice depiction of the Thunderjet by ProModeller/Revell. The intake part though, requires attention because it is significantly smaller in diameter than the fuselage front.
Models have been along periodically since childhood.
Over the years, I built close to 1000 models.
I want to share my excitement from this great hobby with the images presented here.
Wingman Model 1/48 Kfir TC 2
The Kfir TC 2 was a late development of the aircraft converting to a two seater version that was used for training.
The combination of the Kinetic Kfir kit platform and the long resin nose presented a serious build challange.
Dragon 1/48 Ju 88G-6
At some stage during the entry to service of the Ju 88G series the Germans thought that it would be advantageous to hide the development of new aircraft types with a silhouetted camouflage depicting the C version tail. The effectiveness of [...]
Meng 1/48 EA-18G Growler
Meng's Growler is a very good kit with nicely engraved panel lines and a good fit of parts. The only criticism I have for the kit is the somewhat crude design of cockpit and related decals. In other words, the canopy is better kept closed.
Falcon 1/48 Messerschmitt Bf 109G-12
About one hundred 109G aircraft were converted to a two seat version during 1944 for training purposes.
Falcon produced a basic (and only) 1/48 styrene Bf 109G-12 version. It is based on the G-4 airframe. I used spare parts from Hasegawa [...]
Messerschmitt Jet Bomber: Trimaster Me 262A-2aU2
Following Hitler's outburst when he found out that the new and promising jet aircraft would not be suitable to bomb England, the A2 variant was developed for bombing missions with two bomb racks. Later, a dedicated bomber was designed with [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 Austrian Draken
The "Dragon Knights" of 1 Staffel, Austrian Air Force Draken was one of Hasegawa's model topics. I repainted the dragon drawing because the decal representing the nose art had sharp and incorrect edges.
Hasegawa 1/48 Ju 87G-1 Stuka
the floating canopy on the cockpit of Hasegawa's quarter scale Kanonenvogel Stuka is one of many items require corrections during the build. The kit boasts with accurate dimensions and crisply recessed panel lines. Yet, the design takes [...]
Pasting Zimmerit: Dragon 1/35 Tiger I
Late production Tigers were commonly coated with zimmerit. With zimmerit applicator, it is possible to achieve realistic results since the field application of zimmerit was also free hand. In addition, the damage that the coat sustained in [...]
Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire I
Tamiya's new tool Spitfire I was an opportunity to explore the characteristics of early Spitfires. The new tool kit is more detailed and has photoetch parts. I used the instructions and spare parts to upgrade the original 1993 mold. The [...]
