Wild Strawberries

by California Steve on March 19, 2017 · in Uncategorized · 37 ≡

This is the Revell Type 82 E. And a nice model it is. Very basic, but goes together well. I just happened that it drove into a field of wild strawberries. I wanted to do a factory fresh version and put this together in a couple of [...]

1/48 FW-190F-8

by John Healy on March 19, 2017 · in Aviation · 36 ≡

This is the mid '90s Tamiya kit that I'm ashamed to admit has lurked in the bowels of the stash since at least 1996. I've shied away from WW2 German stuff because I've never been very happy with my mottled camo results until recently. I [...]

Another Tamiya 1/48 armor

by Paul Mahoney on March 19, 2017 · in Diorama · 12 ≡

Much earlier, I posted my first armor build - a Tamiya 1/48 Flakpanzer. I am an aircraft guy, but after building that kit, I became interested in doing a few more from the series. Here is my 2nd armor build - a Tamiya 1/48 Sherman [...]

Tu-154 Of Omskavia, Plasticart, 1/100

by Dmitry Ryzhenkov on March 17, 2017 · in Aviation · 26 ≡

Hello, dear friends. It so happened that I got my hands on a set of German firms Reifra. Saying she's revived the line when your favorite GDR-ovsky Plasticart models. Indeed, in the box lay the sprues painfully known. All in the distant [...]

Mid-North Courier 1941-42

by Stellan Schroeder Englund on March 17, 2017 · in Photo Collections · 12 ≡

Since a while I´m active at the Historical center in the little town of Riverton, South Australia. Filing and listing old newspapers sounds a bit boring but it is anything but for a history minded guy like me. Following photos are from [...]

Yoo-hoo?! No, Uhu.

by Scott Nelson on March 16, 2017 · in Aviation · 32 ≡

My newest archiving addition is the 1/48 Tamiya He-219 Uhu. I got this kit pretty cheap from a vendor at a local contest. A couple pieces were broken but, nothing too difficult to fix. I am a modeler after all ?. The kit, as most Tamiya [...]
