1/72 Messerschmitt Bf109G-6

by Michael Smith on April 15, 2023 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

This little Airfix kit was a Christmas present, and the camouflage intrigued me enough to finish it, even though the kit is not a notable one. But it was well worth it for the lessons it taught me in the mottling effects I can do with an [...]

by Thomas Pepe on April 15, 2023 · in Automotive · 12 ≡

I built this MCW Resin kit using the 1969 442 AMT kit. Beautiful resin casting of this car! I built this a a replica of a former ride I had in 1975. I added a scratch built vinyl top and painted with GM Production color [...]

Galileo II, Shuttlecraft Star Trek TOS, Amt/Ertl. 1/40-1/35?

by Robert Royes on April 15, 2023 · in Sci-fi · 5 ≡

This is the original AMT Shuttlecraft as seen on the original series. 1997 appears on the box Ertl own AMT at this time. I attempt to do some inside detail work, but that has never been my forte. There is an alien squatter though taking a [...]

by Robert Royes on April 15, 2023 · in Armor · 7 ≡

L-59 ALBATROS

by Jesus Hermosell on April 15, 2023 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Hello guys, I present to you the last work. A very good trumpeter model.The worst is an injection mark on the glass, which has been necessary to polish. Another bad thing that I have found, as in other trumpeters, has been the [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Corsair

by Wes Pennest on April 15, 2023 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

The Tamiya F4U-1D out of the box, which is precisely what I needed after the long slog through the Trumpeter Su-25. It's perfect. Follow the directions and use the time to hone your painting skills. Tom Cleaver's "Corsair 101" [...]

E-50 Flakpanzer w. 5,5cm FlaK55, Germany in late 1945- What-If/1946

by Simon Nagorsnik on April 14, 2023 · in Armor · 2 ≡

E-50 Flakpanzer (Trumpeter, 07124) One of the biggest mistakes of the Trumpeter box art is that they always show their 1/35 models on it, therefore, the content doesn´t quite match what is shown. The kit doesn´t contain many parts and is [...]

by Simon Nagorsnik on April 14, 2023 · in Armor · 2 ≡

Trumpeter's T-80BV. (07145) At Trumpeter 1/72nd scale models, i'm always a bit skeptical about quality as far as details are concerned. They are not bad, clean casting and good fit and so on, also here everything is available, but I am [...]
