Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
This is definitely not my finest work, not my worst one. The kit is a real beauty and I'd give anything to build it again.
That said, half of the colours mentioned are wrong! Eduard was lazy wih the PE and because of it, all the cockpit PE [...]
My father hasn´t built one but two of the new Eduard G-6/AS at once.
Like with the JG27 scheme also this was built oob. Added antenna wire with EZ Line and fishing line, brake lines with plastic rods and lead wire. Painted with with [...]
Time to push another little birdie out of the nest, in this case a Czech limited-run kit made by Sign in the late 90s. A few bakelite-looking plastic parts, a couple of chunks of white metal (prop & engine), and a bunch of [...]
ARII kit + FM Details Set (the full cockpit is made of resin + photo etched parts).
Not an easy build but happy with the final result.
Made a wooden base with an illustration of the denomination "Shoki the Demon Killer" Zong Kui [...]
Perhaps not the appropriate place for something that amused that perverse side of what remains of my brain. It's really a comment on that side of many of us - I'm probably more guilty than most - who believe they've achieved a level of [...]
And another one of my older kits to archive, here’s my 1/72 Airfix Supermarine Swift FR 5 from about 5 years ago. When I was a “littler” kid in the late 60’s I made several of the old Hawk Models Swifts. Those were always fun kits [...]
First plan was built it OOB, but engine look not good and miss seatbelts. I buy resin engine and PE parts from Eduard. This is for HobbyCraft, not for Hobby Boss, but one different word no problem for me. I use
some parts for upgrade kit. [...]
When the Iraqi Air Force settled on acquiring the MiG-23 to fulfill the air combat role supplementing the MiG-21. They also were evaluating the MiG-27 for the close support role as well. With the Su-22 and Su-25 also being evaluated in [...]
Again, next to no "in-progress" building photos. The windscreen was painted on the inside then it was glued onto the fuselage by using Future Floor Wax, (FFW). I coated the seam with thin super glue and sanded the outside from [...]
Another one of my older projects to archive, here’s my 1/72 Revell AG Hawker Hunter Mk. 58. I think I made this one between 2008 and 2010. I do remember the outer wing leading edge extensions were molded with the upper wing half and [...]
