Revell 1/72 Shackleton AEW

by Kevin Rowbotham on February 19, 2023 · in Aviation · 30 ≡

Here is my Shackleton built pretty much out of the box but I added screen wipers and detailed the cockpit. An unusual scale for me although it is still quite a large kit when finished. The model was finished with Tamiya XF's and, as I [...]

Eduard 1/48 P-51D-5 Mustang "Nooky Booky II"

by David Butler on February 18, 2023 · in Aviation · 27 ≡

2nd kit of 2023- first time building an Eduard kit. Overall it was a mixed experience, detail was amazing inside and out but definitely a level of "fiddliness" that was frustrating. Some self inflicted wounds along the way as [...]

Otaki 1/48 Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate "Frank"

by Bob Torres on February 18, 2023 · in Aviation · 26 ≡

Another old build that I decided to do a little work to. This was originally finished as a factory fresh build since the markings are from the second prototype of the Ki-84. This is an Otaki kit that was first released in 1973. Not too [...]

Team Suzuki ECSTAR GSX-RR '20 – Tamiya 1/12

by John vd Biggelaar on February 18, 2023 · in Automotive · 30 ≡

When George @chinesegeorge posted several of his beautiful bikes and Spiros @fiveten created a special bike group, I could simply not resist to enter with a kit myself. Although no experience at all with building motorcycles, I definitely [...]

Clash of the Titans

by Carl Christensen on February 17, 2023 · in Diorama · 20 ≡

I've always wanted to do a diorama of 2 tanks that have rammed each other and then got stuck. I'm quite happy with how this has come out. There is quite a lot going on here, but I think it captures the frenzied panic of everyone trying to [...]

1/144th Zvezda Boeing 757-200

by Jim Sullivan on February 17, 2023 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Here is a model of Donald Trump's 2016 campaign aircraft. I would like to stress that this is a model and not in any way to be seen as a political statement. I just really liked the markings and that big American flag on the tail. When [...]

Nichimo 1/48 B5N2 Kate

by Spiros Pendedekas on February 17, 2023 · in Aviation · 51 ≡

The B5N "Kate" was designed by a team led by Katsuji Nakamura in response to a 1935 specification by the Navy for a torpedo bomber to replace the Yokosuka B4Y. The first prototype flew in January 1937 and was ordered into [...]

Review: 1/48 Zvezda Yak-9D

by Tom Cleaver on February 17, 2023 · in Reviews · 25 ≡

The Yakovlev Yak-9 was a development of the robust and successful Yak-7B fighter, which was based in turn on the tandem-seat advanced trainer known as the Yak-7UTI. The Yak-9 entered production in 1942 and began arriving in Soviet fighter [...]
