1/48 Tamiya AD-4 Skyraider VMA-121 Korean War

by Dan DeSilva on April 1, 2017 · in Aviation · 35 ≡

I was overjoyed when I found out that some AD-4 Skyraiders received armor plate kits in the Korean War. For me, this meant I could use the Tamiya 1/48 AD-6 kit mostly out of the box...er... what I mean is, I wouldn't have to grind off the [...]

Revell 1/24 1960 Corvette

by Tom Bebout on April 1, 2017 · in Automotive · 11 ≡

Something a little different for me, a car. Haven't build one since I was 14, and I remember it being a gray gull wing Mercedes. Was prodded into doing this kit from a coworker who builds lots of cars and trucks. The kit was boxed as Skips [...]

by Ralph Clements on March 31, 2017 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

This has taken me since mid-January to get done...not because it is so great but because I am so slow...It is the Revell 1/48 B-24D that I have tried to make represent an Atlantic Theater ASW PB4Y-1 (I think that would be the proper USN [...]
