iModeler Aviation

Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.

72nd scale Tamiya P51 D with Aries detail set.

I completed this some years ago and remember it was a real squeeze getting everything in including the full depth wheel bays. Rob.

32nd Me109 G6

Hasegawa kit with MDC canopy and cockpit sets. This has been lurking in my stash for the best part of ten years before I gave it any attention! Rob.

Tamiya 48th scale P51D with Part detail set.

Built from the "Aces of the 8th" and finished with Alclad. I spent a lot of time blending the windshield and canopy and making barrels and blast tubes. I also dropped the elevators and added some extra detail to the [...]

Tarangus 1/48 Saab Lansen

This is the limited edition 1/48 Saab Lansen by Tarangus, a relatively new company specializing in Swedish subjects. I built this a couple years ago for Airfix Model World magazine, the article appearing in the December 2013 [...]

1:48 GWH Focke Wulf Fw 189 A-2

1/48 Revell F-14 Tomcat

Well well well.. I finally did my first jet. I started this jet back in December but I lost interest and put it up for a while. I finally got sick of seeing it lying around so I finished it. I thought it came out decent for my first ever [...]

Mitsubishi A6M5 – Japanese Surrender Markings, 1945

Coincidental to Dmitry's earlier posting of his 1/72 Airfix Zeke, here is Tamiya's 1/32 A6M5 in surrender markings, completed this weekend. I bought the kit second-hand a year ago, sprues still bagged as new, and with two Eduard [...]
