by Chuck A. Villanueva on June 3, 2018 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

This is a kit I built about 15 years ago, and has been languishing on the shelf ever since. One of the early builds with no WIP . Also suffered some damage and lost pieces on a move a few years ago. But I did find a couple of images I [...]

THE SPECIAL HOBBY LLOYD C.V series 46 - 1:72 Here's my little stop motion experiment of assembling the Lloyd C.V series 46 from Special Hobby in the scale 1:72. For me it was a pleasure to partial work in my garden since we had a long [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 Fw-190A-3

by Tom Cleaver on June 3, 2018 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

In the fall of 1941, just as the RAF was beginning to get a handle on dealing with the Messerschmitt Bf-109F in its “Non-Stop Offensive” (called by the Germans with good reason “The Nonsense Offensive”), a new player arrived on the [...]

Troublesome Hellcat

by Bert_j on June 3, 2018 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

Hi Folks: just finished the 1/72 Dragon F6F-3. I wanted to do the wing-fold for some time. The carrier deck is from Verlinden. However, at least with this kit, or my patience, I found the many parts fiddilly and the kit directions were not [...]

Revell 1/144 U-216: Type VIID U-Boat

by paul teixeira on June 3, 2018 · in Ships · 7 ≡

This is an "olde but goodie" model I built some time ago, maybe over 10 years ago. Once in a while I go into the basement and look at my old, dusty built models put away in storage. These models in storage are much older then [...]

Ansaldo A.1 Ballila – Progress 2

by Rob Pollock on June 3, 2018 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

A bit further along now. If you're wondering why these Progress reports aren't set up in WiP, there are only around 50 parts to this resin kit, and so I thought it unlikely to merit a full-blown WiP thread. This present post is in fact the [...]

1/48 Tamiya Mosquito

by gary sausmikat on June 2, 2018 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Hi All, The Mosquito is my favorite aircraft and I would love to be able to get behind the stick some day. I won't be able to add much to all the things said about this Tamiya kit other than it was a pleasure to build, very smooth. I [...]

Hurricane Mk.I early (Airfix 1/72)

by Dmitry Stropalov on June 2, 2018 · in Aviation · 27 ≡

Hi everybody! I have some issues with abnormal craving for early versions of a well-known aircraft – two-blade props, strange canopies like on an early Spitfire, strange camouflage patterns, and so on. And this is a very early Hurricane [...]
