U.S.S. Salem, CA-139 1/350

by Frank Cronin on June 12, 2013 · in Ships · 7 ≡

The gentleman that wanted this model built had served on it as an enlisted seaman. He served just prior to it being decommissioned. Salem had a 10 year career from 1949-59. It served in the Atlantic and never fired a shot in anger. It was [...]

1/48 Monogram A-26C Invader

by Jaime Carreon on June 12, 2013 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

It's finished! Kit built OOB, decals from Aeromaster Marauding Invaders Part 3 sheet. This one only took 11 years to finish, hope the next one doesn't take that long... I didn't get quite enough weight into her, so she tail sits. It [...]

by Bill Koppos on June 12, 2013 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

One of Trump's better efforts, IMHO. The spinner is a bit too long but otherwise I think the lines are pretty good and the rivets work in this scale. What possessed me to do a kit of such largesse I'm not sure, but I do love Hurricanes, [...]

by Frank Cronin on June 12, 2013 · in Automotive · 8 ≡

This is another vehicle I built on commission for the same gentleman. He provided the complete kit which was the Entex 1/16th scale kit from 1960. Let me first say that the true color of the model is that which is shown in last photo,the [...]

1931 Rolls Royce Phantom II Convertible

by Frank Cronin on June 12, 2013 · in Automotive · 6 ≡

I built this on commission from the very old Monogram 1/24th kit. Surprisingly for it's age it went together rather well. He had the kit and when he gave it to me to build it was missing quite a few parts. I had to search around and I [...]

Super Cobra

by AL HOFFMAN on June 11, 2013 · in Aviation · 4 ≡

This is the Academy 1/35 AH-1W Super Cobra. Built OOB. Went together fairly easily. The cockpit glass could have fit better, should have posed it open. Even though the pictures don't show it the finish is rather grainy. Can't remember what [...]
