Airfix Sea Hurricane 1/48 scale

by Matt Dyer on May 10, 2023 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

My inspiration for this model was a profile painting in Richard Franks’ The Hawker Hurricane, a truly fantastic compendium of information about the Hurricane. Check out all his exceptional books published by Valiant Press in the [...]

Painting wood panels on the Zoukei-Mura 1/32 Ho-229

by George Johnson on May 10, 2023 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

This turned out to be a lot more complicated than I originally thought. The final model is going to be a weather-worn example with lots of faded paint and rust. I performed some tests and came up with a scheme. The panels that weren't [...]

Belgian Thoroughbred

by Christopher Amano-Langtree on May 9, 2023 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

In 1930 the Belgians were considering what their new fighter aircraft was to be. They'd held a competition and settled on the rather pedestrian Dewoitine D.27 and the Czech Avia BH-33. However, the air force staff attended the Hendon Air [...]

Hello again! Here is my latest build for a former F-4 pilot and member of USMC VMFAT-101. This kit is the Tamiya 1/32 scale kit. From what I can tell this is an older kit, but still a fairly straight forward. Added a real aluminum exhaust [...]

Eduard 1/48 Tempest V

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on May 7, 2023 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

Although not Eduard's finest model, it is still the best model in the market. Quite a few areas require filling the seams and re-scribing the fine panel lines. Nonetheless, the model is well detailed and captures the characteristic Hawker [...]
