Revell 1/144 Boeing 767-338 Australian Airlines

by Ray Seppala on August 2, 2017 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

This is the Revell B767-300 (KLM boxing) built in Australian Airlines colour. I built it out of the box except for the decals which came from Draw Decal. A fairly simple build until you reach the fuselage marking. Fortunately, Draw Decal [...]

by Ray Seppala on August 2, 2017 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

This is the Italeri KC-135R built out of the box. I used a mixture of kit decals and those from a Wolfpak sheet. I attempted to build this (foolishly) as part of a club Blitz build over a weekend. I almost got there too. A couple of weeks [...]

Alekseyev KM “Caspian Monster”

by Jeff Thomsen on August 1, 2017 · in Aviation · 27 ≡

(I finally finished this one a few months ago. It was one of those projects that you are inspired to start, then get distracted by something else, but eventually come back to.) The Alekseyev ekranoplans were designed to fly in ground [...]

Airfix 1/72 C-47

by Brad Bronov on July 31, 2017 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

So, this is a little out of my wheelhouse, as I build primarily 1/48 postwar jets. The origin of this particular build started off quiet unexpectedly, as is often the case with me. While perusing a thread on a Facebook group (Cold War [...]

by Won-hui Lee on July 31, 2017 · in Reviews · 7 ≡

I didn't posted a review for a while to visit Japan. So I'm sorry for the imodeler. I was fascinated by the Duke of Dunkerque. Her silhouette is so beautiful. It seemed like teaching me the beauty of the French battleship. I have thought [...]
