Deadly Stringbag...1/48 Fairey Swordfish Mk.II, 836 NAS, Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm

by Reinhard Spreitzhofer on February 24, 2023 · in Aviation · 26 ≡

My dad hasn´t done a British aircraft, at least with British markings, for a while. Now it was about time. Great Tamiya kit, also used Tamiya´s PE set for the rigging. Not a bad idea, worth a try and didn´t turn out too bad. But for the [...]

by Felix on February 23, 2023 · in Aviation · 33 ≡

Finally finished this Airfix Bristol Blenheim Mk. 1 in 72nd scale. Even though every review warns about the fiddly canopy and even though i already did this kit a year ago, i still am somewhat disappointed and have very mixed feelings [...]

Ford GT - Tamiya 1/24 with Photoetch and LEDs

by Brian Mennenoh on February 22, 2023 · in Automotive · 19 ≡

I purchased this kit and the photoetch for it about a year ago. I had a bunch of other projects I was doing for friends that took precedence for quite a while. I was also stalling as I was a bit intimidated by the PE. Elements of the PE [...]

by George Damian on February 22, 2023 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

In the never ending search for the elusive realistic and at the same time artistic weathering effects for model airplanes I subjected a FW 190 D from Tamiya to some refined techniques. I went for the RLM 76 Lichtblau - RLM 82 Hellgruen - [...]
