The elegant trainer in the scheme of the Austrian Airforces. I build this Kinetic-kit out of box, but added many scratch-parts to the cockpit. It was a lot of fun to build, although I had to use a lot of putty. Paintjob was done with [...]

And now for something a little different…..

by Joe Caputo on August 9, 2016 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

This started out as a 1/72 Airfix Westland "Whirlwind". A few cuts, a few added pieces, a few cold beers, and here we are. I forgot to ad, a few squirts of rattle can aluminum. No detail, no reference, nothing but FUN !

When I saw the Eduard Spitfire Mk. IX my friend Dennis Meyers was in the process of making some months ago (which you can find here on iModeler), I knew I had to pull my Mk. VIII off the shelf and get started. Here is the result: the [...]

My brother in law Marvin served in Vietnam in 1969 with the 4th Infantry Division as a crew member for an M109 self propelled howitzer. Marvin left us a few years ago after a prolonged illness we are quite certain was brought on by [...]
