1/35 T-90A

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on November 21, 2022 · in Armor · 8 ≡

Two models by Meng and Zvezda. The latter has the rear fuel tanks installed. Both models are complex to build yet, the results are well worth the effort. Meng's model is better engineered and has workable tracks although the natural sag of [...]

1:48 Scale, Accurate Miniatures TBM-3 "Avenger"

by Frederick J Seitz III on November 21, 2022 · in Uncategorized · 13 ≡

Calling this one DONE! One of my favorite kits to build, (I've built three...). The kit overall suffers from a wee bit of over engineering, (As in you won't see most of what's in the fuselage...). The fit and level of detail is very well [...]

Hello everyone! This time I share with you a subject that is closer to my heart. It is a strange, but beautiful, as a real italian engineering creation. It was develepoed for one reason, to win the well known Schneider Trophy for Italy in [...]

by Christopher Amano-Langtree on November 20, 2022 · in Reviews · 11 ≡

Lela Presse focus on books covering mostly French equipment but also other nations. For the French, at least, they aim at definitive and are comprehensive and accurate. They are not cheap but for the cost you get everything you could [...]

Mach2's Arado Ar232B transport

by Paul Higgins on November 19, 2022 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

This build is part of the 'Imperial German...' group build, and given the age of the model and presentation of the parts, it is definitely a challenge. However, I'm pleased with the eventual outcome and this represents about two months of [...]
