Here is my Monogram 1/48 OA-4M. The kit has been around for years- I thought it odd that they released an OA-4M before a TA-4F or J, but maybe the weapons for a FAC role was what they thought would sell the kit? One curiosity of the [...]

Here is my first article. Built back in 2006, this is my favorite German WWII armored vehicle. Built with aftermarket barrel, tracks, figures and fenders. Always liked this pattern, slightly different with the hard edge finish. All [...]

1/72 Italeri; Bell-206B Jetranger, Croatian Air Force

by Boris Grgić on August 6, 2017 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

An easy kit to build, but it was a painting challenge. It was the tiniest model I've made (cca 12-13cm) which made masking job very difficult. For example painted sqares are 4x4mm and it took a lot of tryouts before I managed to line them [...]

by Alfredo Cofré on August 4, 2017 · in Ships · 9 ≡

Hi, I'd like to show you a ship I built on 2015. This is the Hobbyboss RN Pola 1:350, converted to RC ship. The kit quality is awful and several parts had to be remade and redesigned from scratch, like the mast, tripod and anchors. The [...]
