1/48 Wingsy Ki51 Sonia

Finished... good. Not my fav build but glad it's done. Looks pretty good to me. Wingsy 1/48 IJA Type 99 Ki-51 Code named Sonia by the Allies. 27th Hikosentai, Burma 1942. . It's very possible it was my fault, but I had alot of trouble [...]

Ed Force One Iron Maiden Boeing 747-400 1/144

Hi everyone, finally got some time and finished the boeing 747 Iron Maiden Ed Force One 1/144 from Revell. This is not an easy kit to build (definitely not recommended for beginners), it´s an old plastic from 2001 so i had a lot problems [...]

Part 4 Final F2G Corsair

I studied the tail wheel photo that I had, then looked at the tail wheel parts that came in the kit. As you can see I only used the kit's tire and the "U" bracket. It was "cut and fit" a few times and after it was all [...]

ARADO AR 196 A-3 ITALERI 1:48

In questi giorni di "arresti domiciliari" ho tirato fuori dalla scorta questo modello comprato qualche anno fa. L'ho costruito direttamente dalla scatola e sono rimasto stupito dalla semplicità di costruzione. Non ho voluto [...]

AMT 1/48 P-40F 'Short Tail"

Thought it was time for Tommy's TomaHawk/WarHawk factory to gear up production again. Also because we all seem to have plenty of time here in Ohio for building kits. Took this old AMT kit and added an aftermarket seat, exhause stacks and [...]

Airfix 1/72 Spitfire IX and Bf-110 C dogfight scene

Hi everyone! This is my tribute to Air Vice Marshal “Johnnie” Johnson. It is a simulated dogfight between his Spitfire IX JE J EN398 and a Bf-110 C. I will not go into the history of those amazing planes, as they are so well [...]

Late War Bf-109G-10 in 1/48 Scale

This is Eduard's ProfiPack series Messerschmitt Bf-109G-10 as built by the Wiener Neustädter Flugzeugwerke (WNF) factory with the enlarged wooden tail. My example has been finished as a very late war JG/51 aircraft 'Rosemarie' which was [...]

From truculent turtle to sea deity: PV2-7 Neptune

Before the start of this project, I was vaguely familiar with the P2V Neptune, but it was completely unclear to me what an important role this type played in military aviation during the Cold War. What is meant by this? Firstly, the name [...]

The Classy Curtiss

I built this Academy 72nd scale kit during a 24hr. club build. I wanted to choose something from the "man cave stash from hell" that I figured would fit well and would be convincing with solely what came in the box,just to keep [...]

Finally finished the 1/72 Amodel Mi-6 Beast

This was a 5 month long build. It gave me trouble from the start. Absolutely nothing fit.
