The Tamiya 1/48th scale Spitfire Vb is certainly a go-to kit of mine if I am looking for a stress free build. The parts fit and engineering are still highly competitive although the kit came out over 25 years ago. You can typically find [...]
This is the Eduard kit from 2014. It’s the second tooling of this plane that Eduard did. The first tooling was the very first full kit that Eduard produced in 1993. The two kits have nothing in common. This was a real pleasure to [...]

As Captain Terry Martin of the 562nd Tactical Fighter Squadron of the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing told me when I visited the wing at George AFB in May 1982 on assignment from Air Force Magazine to do an article on the Wild Weasels, [...]
Revell produced a good 1/32 kit of the 262B. Yet, the definitive 262 kit in the scale requires the combination of Trumpeter's wings from their excellent 262A kit. The wings are matched with Hasegawa's old 262B kit that has the correctly [...]
This is my 3rd miniature and she is the best one so far. For first time, I used airbrush to get smooth colors transition and it definitely paid off.
This beatiful print is created by GSculpt and its original name is "Gunaty - pale [...]
