by Michael Drover on August 31, 2022 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

G'day folks. I built this one in the later half of 2019. This is the lovely P-40B by Airfix in 48th scale. Flown by Sergeant William Earl Houston (RNZAF). This is GA-O (AK457) from 112 Squadron RAF during their time in North Africa. I'm [...]

1/48 Hawker Hurricane IID.

by John Healy on August 30, 2022 · in Aviation · 31 ≡

This is the Hobbycraft kit that first appeared in 1988. I pulled this from the stash to work on while I awaited delivery of parts for my Dora Wings Vengeance. I have a soft spot for these Hobbycraft kits. They were doing subjects that [...]

Nordic Cowboy...1/48 Noorduyn Sk16A (Harvard Mk.IIB), Svenska Flygvapnet

by Reinhard Spreitzhofer on August 30, 2022 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

So, here´s my dad´s fourth and last Texan for this year. Italeri Harvard boxing, the molding is worse than the previous Italeri T-6G boxing. Canopy parts had fit problems, cockpit sidewalls were molded in different thickness, landing [...]

France 1940

by Dennis Meyers on August 28, 2022 · in Diorama · 10 ≡

I haven’t built a diorama for quite some time. Years ago, when I focused on figures exclusively, I did a few one and two-figure dioramas and vignettes. I wanted to create a full-fledged diorama with an AFV and figures packed into as [...]

Special Hobby 1/72 Short Sunderland Mk.V

by Alistair Gauld on August 28, 2022 · in Aviation · 35 ≡

A marathon run at this one as it was started on Christmas Eve last year. As with all Special Hobby kits there are foibles and challenges but the major issues with this build were entirely of my own making. I had got her to the stage that i [...]

Stalinetz Soviet Tractor and ML-20 Howitzer near Kursk 1943, 1:35

by Michel Verschuere on August 28, 2022 · in Armor · 9 ≡

I had this build in mind for a while and both kits were in my stash since last year. Although the current worldly events made me doubt initially whether a Soviet build was appropriate, I did go ahead with it nevertheless. After all, it's [...]

by gary sausmikat on August 28, 2022 · in Aviation · 34 ≡

Hi All. I have seen the last remaining F9C Sparrowhawk before, at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy/NASM, but for some reason on my last visit, with my Bro-in-law (thanks Kurt, had a great time), I felt inspired to build this classic USN [...]

by Dmitry Stropalov on August 28, 2022 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

After 10 months of being not able to finish anything, this new tool Yak-9T (T - tank) has finally brought me back. Thank you, ICM 🙂 The kit fits quite well. The only inconvenient thing was the wing root fairing. And the windscreen [...]
