Revell 1/48 P40 B Flying Tiger

by Mark Hedrick on October 15, 2024 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

This is a very old model. I had built it back around 1977 when I was in law school. Maybe Monogram then? I saw it at a local store on a very reduced sale so I thought I would give it a try for old time sake. It really shows its age. [...]

Nostalgic Build, a Fun Trip Back in Time

by Joe Boylan on October 15, 2024 · in Space · 5 ≡

I saw this model in a friend's stash and waxed a bit nostalgic, and he let me buy it off him. I had built this model in grade school, but lacked the skills, and I believe it ended up packed with fire crackers in the backyard. Fun kit, [...]

Dragon 1/48 Ju 88P-1

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on October 15, 2024 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

The Ju 88 P-1 was a heavy-gun variant fitted with single 75 mm (2.95 in) Bordkanone BK 7,5 cannon. It appeared in mid-1942 in small numbers and considered to be a failure both in terms of a tank destroyer or a bomber.

1/72 HELLER DC-6B

by Steve Hawley on October 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

I wanted to build a United DC-6 since it was the first prop airliner I flew on way back in 1963. Fond memories. I thought the HELLER was a good choice. Well, let's be frank, it the only choice in a larger scale. One reviewer referred to [...]

Junkers Ju 290 A-5 "Seeadler"

by Chas Bunch on October 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Here’s my build of the Revell Ju-290 A-5 in 1:72. Not my scale, but I have quite a few subjects in 1:72 (or smaller) that interest me. I picked up this big beast at the local hobby shop on impulse a couple of years ago and finally got [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 F-14A Tomcat

by Spiros Pendedekas on October 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 36 ≡

During the 60s, the USN sought a long range high performance interceptor to defend its fleet. For this Fleet Air Defense (FAD) aircraft and in favor of versatility, the Navy was directed by Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara to [...]

Airfix Avro Lancaster Mk.II 1/72

by Felix on October 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

This is the Airfix Avro Lancaster Mk. II, representing "Zombie" from 408 Sqn. in 1944. Painted with AK interactive acrylics, some pencils for weathering and a panel line wash from Ammo Mig. A matte coat at the end. I was looking [...]

Amtech 1/48 P-40M Kittyhawk Mk.III

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on October 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

The venerable Ertl kit re boxed by AMtech depicting an iconic 112 Sq. aircraft that was the first to use the shark teeth emblem in North Africa.

P-40B "Pearl Harbor" 1/48th Airfix

by Walt on October 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

I have always liked the P-40 in all its variations, although I do think I like the earlier variants better, like I do for the P-38. When I saw the Airfix kit and read the reviews I knew I wanted to build one. Unfortunately I am trying to [...]
