Review: Thunder Model 1/35 Scammell Pioneer Tank Transporter – Build Review, Part 1

by Boris Rakic on November 16, 2017 · in Reviews · 12 ≡

Last weekend I visited Scale Modelworld at Telford for the first time ever. Together with Martin (@editor) we roamed the halls, took in all the wonderful work on display, and in between all the “ohs” and “ahs” I had time to chat [...]

Parnall Panther (1921), 1/32 Scratchbuild

by Rob Pollock on November 16, 2017 · in Show Reports · 10 ≡

I had a look through Martin’s aircraft posts from Telford but didn’t see this one listed unless I overlooked it, so apologies if duplicated. I think the modeller is Italian but don’t know anything else about it apart from the fact [...]

HK 1/32 DH Mosquito BMk XVI build

by Juan Benitez on November 16, 2017 · in Aviation · 4 ≡

So much has been written/said/shown about the Mossie this plane needs no introduction! The aptly named "Wooden Wonder" did everything it was designed to do...and a whole lot more. My first exposure to the Mossie was the intro [...]

Revell 1/35th scale Man 5t Truck, Kosovo Conflict 1998

by Chuck A. Villanueva on November 16, 2017 · in Armor · 13 ≡

A change of pace in building something that doesn't have wings. With a few armor and soft skin kits in the stash, this one was quite interesting picking it up at a kit show a few years ago. When it comes to armor I tend to lean towards [...]

Eduard 1/48 Fw 190D-9 JG 301

by Stan Traas on November 16, 2017 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Finally beaten into submission. While not as maddeningly difficult as Eduard's Anton series, this one has it's fit issues. Two main complaints are- 1. covers designed for open display do not adapt well to closing up (note the gun cover [...]

1/48 Tamiya Jagdpanther

by Stan Traas on November 16, 2017 · in Armor · 12 ≡

Most recent armor build. Still too clean, I KNOW... I did try to mud it up a bit using a couple of splatter techniques, but it still lacks the grunge. Ah, well, I think the camo job turned out OK. RB & Master Barrels, Hauler P-E, [...]

Scratch Built Paper jet liner – Incredible!

by Charles King on November 15, 2017 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

Scratch building at its best. Dedication and resilience is what you can call this artist. Take a read and prepare to be awed! (link)

Astutely Done

by Scott Nelson on November 15, 2017 · in Ships · 21 ≡

When I feel like I’m getting bogged down with builds that are getting too complicated, I like to do a modern sub. It’s a black tube with a few parts attached. (Okay, sometimes there’s a red half or so.) That equals refreshment for [...]
