by Martin Dytrych on March 25, 2022 · in Figures · 6 ≡

You know i am almost pure aircraft kits builder, so this might surprise you a bit. Yes, this is my first and only figure. I am fan of everything in manga or anime style, I like movies, series, mangas. For some time I was thinking of [...]

1/72nd Hasegawa RF-101C

by Jim Sullivan on March 25, 2022 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

I recently acquired this kit and decided to build it as it brought back memories of building one like it four decades ago. I'll call it a nostalgia build. The kit is nicely done with clean crisp molding and little flash other than that [...]

WWII German LWS

by Allen Lee on March 25, 2022 · in Armor · 5 ≡

It’s a re-do work of a WWII German LWS, I made a mistake of using oil base wash to applied onto an oil painted model(see last picture)…then I washed all color away and re painted it. Also added an rubber raft on to it.

Tamiya P-51D Mustang, 1/48. 'The Red Tails'.

by Harvey R. on March 25, 2022 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

A Mustang was an aircraft missing from my collection until a few months ago. I decided to go with Tamiya's rendition of the Mustang over Eduard's more detailed version as at the time I fancied a quick and simple build to get the creative [...]

Desktop BUFF/X-15

by Scott Nelson on March 24, 2022 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Here’s a blast from the past from Atlantis, the B-52/X-15 combo kit. Originally produced by Revell, Scalemates says the mold goes back to 1954 for the B-52 and the 1:175 scale combo was first issued in 1961. I wish Atlantis reissuing [...]

by Manuel Magrinho on March 24, 2022 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Built last year but not yet posted, this was a quick and easy, OOB, build just to relax from the long 1:48 ones, on a rainy weekend. Airfix 1:72. FW-190 A8 "White 3" with the blue-white-blue bands from the Reichsverteidigung [...]

Tamiya A6M2b

by Scott Nelson on March 24, 2022 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

My latest finished kit is this 1/72 A6M2b. It’s another wonder kit from Tamiya. I used Mr. Color Japanese Grey/Green for the overall color. I added white to the grey/green and while painting the effect was much more subtle looking while [...]

Malta's 1000 th

by capt. R on March 23, 2022 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

I was wondering for a long time what can be written about such a famous plane as the EP829 and its pilot. Perhaps the most interesting thing was how he differed from Georg Beurling. A completely different personality. This is my third [...]

Hasegawa 1/72 Harrier Gr Mk. 3

by Brian Powell on March 23, 2022 · in Uncategorized · 17 ≡

Here is my obligatory Falklands Harrier! It seems everyone who's into modern military aircraft eventually gets around to building one of these. I'm glad to join their ranks! Since joining this site after my last build, I've been humbled [...]
