Nissan GT-R 'Z-Tune'

by IAN JACKSON on December 21, 2017 · in Automotive · 5 ≡

Well here's a thing - not a race-car, not an 'exotic', not even a NASCAR, just a VERY fast limited edition (only 20 units (re)built) of one of the greatest cars you've never heard of ! Not going to go in to the history of Nissan's GT-R [...]

2017 in review

by Phil Steele on December 21, 2017 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Shamefully slack on building kits this year myself (rock bands 'll do that to ya). But I did managed to complete two in 1/72 scale, paint three big RC Astro Hogs, and fix up a few more older builds for re-shoots. Seasons Greetings to all !

Year in review 2017

by Grega X on December 21, 2017 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

I consider myself a slow modelbuilder so two finished kits per year are good enough for me and it usually takes me about 6 months to actually finish a model. First off the bench was prehistoric 1/48 Revell A-7, with deck diorama base made [...]

Leopard 2 A6

by Marek Halas on December 20, 2017 · in Armor · 17 ≡

Tamiya's 1/35 Leopard 2 A6 rounds off my current crop of builds before the Christmas holidays. It's a Tamiya so this is very much an out of box build. Markings are for an example used by the 5th Company, 203rd Panzer Battalion of the [...]

A year in Review: 2017

by Roberto Colaianni on December 20, 2017 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

3 project ended this year, a long lasting one: the IA-58 Pucarà Acongaua kit in 1/48 started and stopped for almost 3 years, an F4U Corsair in 1/72, for a friend and a collector that, unfortunately passed away shortly after I deliver [...]

by Oliver D. lomeli on December 20, 2017 · in Diorama · 14 ≡

This is my first post and I'm happy to be apart of the society. This is my P-40B from Revel. The tow cart is from a B-24 as well as the crew. Please note the base ball cap on the driver of the tow cart. Base ball was a popular sport in the [...]

Hi, finished this just in time for Christmas, this is the ubiquitous Academy 1/72 P-39Q/N Airacobra, could have been better, could have been worse. I had some fight with the canopy, because i used replacement vac one from CMK set, and this [...]

Year in review 2017

by Ferry Dierckxsens on December 20, 2017 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

So here is my review of 2017. But first I like to wish you all a wonderful Christmas and all the best wishes for 2018. Quite some variation over 2017 which included 2 restored models also. The new toolings from Airfix are fantastic and [...]

1/48 Nakajima Ki-27 by Hasegawa

by John Clark on December 20, 2017 · in Aviation · 23 ≡

This is an early Hasegawa boxing of the Mania Models Ki-27 from about 1977...I think. I put some Eduard details in the cockpit including a seat, belts, and instrument panel but since its so small I really didn't do much more there. The [...]
