"Flattery" 1929 Ford Pickup

by Frank Cronin on December 8, 2014 · in Automotive · 15 ≡

Well I’m back again, have been busy with a lot of projects. I got another request to build of all things, a 1929 Ford. This time it is a pickup truck. This request differs from the “Little Woodie from H@#$%.” In that this request [...]

Diamond t 969A Wrecker

by Bernard Wylie on December 8, 2014 · in Armor · 19 ≡

This is the Mirror Models kit of the Diamond T Wrecker, it's a complicated kit with lots of small parts and lots of even smaller parts, I added most of the LZ Models upgrade PE set, it was painted with Vallejo and weathered with AK [...]

Airfix 1/48 Supermarine Seafire XV Kitbash

by Marek Halas on December 7, 2014 · in Aviation · 23 ≡

An interesting if somewhat futile exercise in kitbashing a Supermarine Seafire XV: This was made from the leftover wings from my Airfix Supermarine Seafire XVII and grafting it onto the modified fuselage of Airfix's Supermarine Spitfire [...]

Beauty and the Beast!!!

by California Steve on December 7, 2014 · in Uncategorized · 22 ≡

How about a little love for those old Lindberg automobile kits. The armored car is one I posted a while ago. It was derived from their Mercedes Benz racer. The new blue car is their Stutz racer with the Benz body grafted on. The windscreen [...]

I've been away a while having started a new job. I'm building this for a friend and its a good kit, would be great if it wasn't for all the ejector pin marks! I have replaced some of the soft detail in the cockpit and added some scratch [...]

Admiral Hipper

by Ulf Lundberg on December 7, 2014 · in Ships · 14 ≡

Trumpeters Admiral Hipper, that I built in the spring of 2012, is typical of their ship kits. It's basically a good kit but nothing extraordinary. The build began, as usual, with the tedious and time consuming job of filling and sanding [...]

Classic Lindberg Coastal Patrol Boat with Conversion to Viet Nam Era PGM

by Joe Caputo on December 6, 2014 · in Ships · 16 ≡

The Lindberg Coastal Patrol Boat, which I had posted much earlier, was a good beginning for this conversion. Reference material was somewhat limited. The Squadron publication, "Riverine" by Jim Mesko, gave me a decent start. [...]

PZL P.11c (MasterCraft 1/72)

by Dmitry Stropalov on December 6, 2014 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

There is not much to say about this kit - an old one from Poland, reboxed by MasterCraft (or MisterCraft) nowadays with a new decals (not good anyway) . A lot of sanding, filling, scribing an so on. But, it's the good old kit from the [...]
