F6F Hellcat – 1:32 Hasegawa

by Matt Minnichsoffer on October 27, 2018 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

First, let me say this—I originally wanted to title this post, “To Hell with this F6!” But, thought our web site benefactors wouldn’t appreciate it. However, my fellow builders, this kit was anything but fun. Maybe its because [...]

1/48 Monogram P-51B “Ole II”

by Brian Riedel on October 27, 2018 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Here's my favorite Monogram kit of all time, the 1/48 P-51B. Over the years I must have built at least six of these (with another 5 in the stash). It is the original mold kit, not the Pro-Modeler re do that came later. It was built pretty [...]

by Marvin Reyes on October 27, 2018 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

This is the Kitty Hawk F2H-2 done almost OOB, using kit decals. I added Furball canopy decals, along with a scratched metal pitot. Reading the reviews of this KH kit is not very much fun, because they highlight a lot of problems that this [...]

by Rob Pollock on October 27, 2018 · in Reviews · 5 ≡

A few modellers here work with WW1 subjects, and I thought I’d pass along some details of two German firms that produce some very nice aircrews/mechanics in resin. This first is Kellerkind Minaturen and the figures are 1/32, so if you [...]

On This Day…October 27th

by david leigh-smith on October 27, 2018 · in News · 6 ≡

After a few days of focus on the Pacific theatre, there's something of a Battle of Britain theme to begin today. The Messerschmitt Bf 109 E (Oberleutnant Karl Fischer) shot down in Windsor Great Park, London. Another BF109E - 'White [...]
