TA-183Huckebein (Raven) Paper model from Fiddlers Green

by Neil on December 19, 2023 · in Aviation

This one is a thing of beauty for me. I have always been fascinated by the rapid advancement of the Aviation industry in Germany during the waning days of WW2. For them to put out designs that seemed to be far ahead of anything at that [...]

Fiddlers Green F-14 Tomcat Papermodel

by Neil on December 19, 2023 · in Aviation

This one...good looking? yes. Trouble to put together? yes. for something that looks so simple it was a real headache to assemble. So glad it is paper. tempted quite a few times to ball it up and try for a 3-point hoop. seeing that I can [...]

T-34 in 1/16 scale kit by Trumpeter

by Rick Schad on December 19, 2023 · in Armor · 22 ≡

Well this was a doozy. The big 1/16 scale T-34 by Trumpeter, full detail inside in out. This build took me exactly 20 days working 7 days a week. This is a good kit, with the typical sketchy directions from Trumpeter, but mold and fit is [...]

Revell 1/48 F/A-18E round two

by Mark P Hartig on December 18, 2023 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

Did one of these awhile back and wanted to do another. All I could find was the version with the Top Gun decals which I refused to use so I got some Carcal AM...more on that in a bit. Cockpit on the last one was blah at best so some AM was [...]

Fast, good lookin' but not much else. MiG's first fighter.

by Bill Koppos on December 18, 2023 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

Well, actually the second. The original designation was I (Istrebeitel, fighter) 200, but a new convention using the designer's names was introduced, these being Migoyan and Gurevitch, hence, MiG. The new moniker was MiG-1, but the [...]

Revell 1/32 Messerschmitt Bf 109G-6 early and late versions

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on December 18, 2023 · in Aviation · 23 ≡

Although not the definitive model representing the Bf-109G-6, Revell's Messerschmitt is a good representation of the aircraft at the 1/32nd scale. The build is not complicated and the end result looks much like the real aircraft. I used [...]

Airfix Hawker Hurricane Mk.1 1:48 scale

by Joel Rogers on December 18, 2023 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

This is my most recent build and my first post to this site. I think my skills have improved greatly thanks to my local IPMS chapter. I don't think any of my previous airplanes were good enough to show so I am proud of this build. I hope [...]
