P-47D Thunderbolt

by IAN JACKSON on June 30, 2017 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

An impulse build after the 1:48 Airfix Spitfire from a month or so ago. Five weeks from cracking the box to what you see here – and yes I know I haven’t painted the sway braces on the pylons and centreline yet. As usual with [...]

1/72nd Minicraft PBM-5 Mariner

by Jim Sullivan on June 29, 2017 · in Aviation · 31 ≡

I found the Minicraft PBM-5 to be an enjoyable build but not without its challenges. For the most part, the kit is nicely engineered with clean crisp parts and finely recessed panel lines. On the negative side, I found that the PBM-5 is a [...]
