Iranian Phantom: Hasegawa 1/48 F-4E

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on November 25, 2023 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

The Hasegawa 1/48th Phantom variants are excellent platforms to explore the diversity of camouflage schemes of the magnificent aircraft. Here, I used DXM's decal sheet to depict a (probable) early F-4E serving in the Iranian Air Force. [...]

Hi, guys... this Go242A kit is a recent addition into my collection and is rather a good kit to build, although there are a few tricky areas as well. Firstly, though, I have to apologise because I only realised a few days back that I had [...]

Greetings to the members of the forum. This time I want to show you one of the last kits under construction. It is the UAZ 3909 van, from Zvezda, in 1/35 scale. The reality is that I was surprised by the quality of the kit, comparing it [...]

E-50 Standardpanzer (Paper Panzer) (1/72)

E-50 tank in an alternative variant design. My idea behind it was to create a slight departure from the previously known E-50/ 75 designs and incorporated elements of Panther and Panther II. I reduced the original tracks width and used [...]

Another Devastator

by Peter Fearon on November 23, 2023 · in Aviation · 36 ≡

Bill Koppos has already done an excellent review of the kit on this site, to which I have little to add. I totally agreed with all his points about the strengths and weaknesses of what I thought was essentially a very good kit. The only [...]
