Mig 21Bis of the Iraqi Air Force based in Jalibah during the mid 80s were deployed to patrol the Persian Gulf. These aircraft had a specialized sea camouflage and probably anti naval vessels missiles for use against the Iranian Navy.

Mildred Fish Harnack

by Aramis Sebastian on July 5, 2024 · in Uncategorized · 3 ≡

So, I have a -- perhaps morbid, I prefer to think, timely -- fascination with photos of victims of state repression. I'm not alone as per David King's "Ordinary Citizens" and Tomasz Kizny's French-language "The Great Terror [...]

Review: A Tale of Two Cougars – Kitty Hawk 1/48 F9F-8 Cougar

by Tom Cleaver on July 5, 2024 · in Reviews · 13 ≡

By the time Grumman’s F9F-2 Panther was entering fleet service in 1949, the advantages of swept wings had already been proven by the North American F-86 Sabre which had flown in prototype form within months of the XF9F-2. The big [...]

Death Dealer III – an homage to Frank Frazetta

by Brian Mennenoh on July 5, 2024 · in Figures · 20 ≡

This is a commission piece for a friend in Washington State. I was not confident in my ability to pull off such a complicated sculpture. I haven't worked in ZBrush for a long time, and I wasn't really ever proficient in it. The idea of [...]

Bandai 1/72 Y-Wing

by Jeremy Millan on July 4, 2024 · in Sci-fi · 14 ≡

Bandai 1/72 Y-Wing painted in my own scheme. I went for a grimy all metal finish that wasn't too shiny. I think it came out ok. Attaching all the pipes was the only hassle of the build. As usual painted with lacquers and weathered with [...]

Mean looking Warhawk

by Ben Walmsley on July 4, 2024 · in Aviation · 40 ≡

This is a Hobby 2000 reboxing of Hasegawa’s 1/48 P-40N. Aside from PE belts and resin exhausts, it’s built out of the box. Not the most original scheme, but arguably the meanest looking fighter of the war, so it was a “must have” [...]

by Graham GREEN on July 4, 2024 · in Uncategorized · 5 ≡

There is a Fire Hose Reel at the M.O.V.E museum at Shepparton Vic and has some excellent designs painted on it, I thought it looked quite good, so I took quite a a few photos OF IT for future reference. I found a working drawing of a Fire [...]

Italeri 1/72 Junkers Ju 52 3M

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on July 4, 2024 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

The film "Where Eagles Dare" left me with a lasting impression. On several occasions I saw the Ju 52 used in the film during visits in Switzerland. It crawled in the sky and I could not imagine that this big aircraft would [...]
