Review: Sword 1/48 Fairey Gannet AEW.3

by Tom Cleaver on September 14, 2024 · in Reviews · 18 ≡

The battle against the kamikazes in World War II demonstrated the need for the earliest possible early warning of attack. The solution was to raise the search radars high enough to expand the “horizon” around the task force, which was [...]

During late 1941, Junkers Ju 88C-4 aircraft of I Gruppe/NJG 2. were transferred from the Netherlands to North Africa. After a short service in the Mediterranean, some aircraft did not make it back to Europe. I used Dragon's Ju 88C as a [...]

White giants, easy build? Airfix 1/72 Victor & Vulcan

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on September 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

Homogeneously painted models bring a promise of an easy build. Yet, overall white paint cover is a wolf in a sheep skin. Not only that the model requires repeated coating to cover the darker colored plastic, but also extra care to [...]

Eduard’s Zero Type 11

by Ben Walmsley on September 13, 2024 · in Aviation · 33 ≡

G’day folks, here is an early zero from Eduard. Nice kit but I managed to find a way to make it difficult. Despite exercising due care on the construction of the wheel wells and main wing, I had trouble mating it to the fuselage. I had [...]

Trumpeter 1/48 Whirlwind

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on September 13, 2024 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

A sketchy design from Trumpeter yet, without fatal mistakes. Decals are glossy and brightly colored and need to mute down or be replaced. Nonetheless, the model can be turned around to decently represent a unique aircraft that had a brief [...]

by Dennis Meyers on September 13, 2024 · in Armor · 5 ≡

This is a crisp 2024 release Academy armor kit. It has very good fit and nice detail for a small scale kit. I built it OOB with the exception of the tactical marking sheets on the rear of the turret and the canvas covers for the aft [...]
