by Erich Goldbach on April 18, 2013 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

This is the Bronco1/35th scale Fieseler Fi 103 RE-3 (Reichenberg) Piloted Flying Bomb Trainer that I built straight from the box a year or so ago. It’s a strange scale to do an aircraft in but it’s something different and is a really [...]

by Bill Koppos on April 17, 2013 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

Such a nice number. I'll "Rocket" over the top with this hasegawa 1/32 Komet I did last year. For it's age it's still a cool kit. Pretty much kept to what was in the box, except for making a couple of "Luftstanders" to [...]

This the Airfix Hawk 81-A-2 that I built straight from the box, with the only modification being to carefully separate the canopy from the windshield. Fitting the canopy over the spine was more than a little difficult so a vacform canopy [...]

by D. Andrews on April 16, 2013 · in Armor · 2 ≡

This tank didn't take long to build at all. I built this one pretty much OOTB. The only thing I changed was the muzzle. I hacked off the original muzzle, and placed the spare on instead. The spare muzzle came from a botched Panther. I plan [...]
