F-4E Phantom II

by Jesus Hermosell on August 16, 2021 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

This is my new job, an Italeri Phantom II. The model is old and very very bad. Only the stencils are saved. I have riveted it and added the landing gear cables. I have also detailed the AIM-9 Sidewinders. I hope you like it. See you next [...]

"Sea Wolf" WW2 German U-boat Commander, Life Miniatures 1:10th

by jorge rivas krause on August 16, 2021 · in Figures · 15 ≡

Here is the second big bust that I've finished, and I think it is an improvement from my previous figure. Inspired by the amazing movie "Das Boot" this figure was sculpted by Korean artist Sang-Eon Lee. The resin cast, detail, [...]

Space Adventurer, 2dreamers 1/9th bust

by jorge rivas krause on August 16, 2021 · in Figures · 21 ≡

Hello, fellow iModellers, This is my first "real" painted figure. I've done others in the past, but always to complement another project, mostly pilots for 1/72nd or 1/48th aircraft or tank crew in 1/48th. So this is the first [...]

Revell Northsea Fishing Trawler, 1:142

by Nikola Kovacevic on August 15, 2021 · in Ships · 14 ≡

This is my third model. I can say, this one was the easiest so far. The model, molding to be specific is quite good quality, all parts fits just fine. The only problem with this package is that for some reason I didn't received not a [...]

Bf-109K-4 Hasegawa 1/48 "Yellow 13"

by Walt on August 15, 2021 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

It's not like we don't see enough 109's here, but I know for some you can never have too many. I finished this one a while back, and really enjoyed the kit. I am not an aficionado so I cannot attest to the kits accuracy or lack thereof. [...]

Republic F-84F Thunderstreak – Italeri/Kinetic 1/48

by Andrew H on August 15, 2021 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

This kit was one of those rare kits that I bought on a whim, and successfully completed without ever "putting it up". It has been the focus of my efforts for the last 6 weeks or so, off and on. The kit itself is an Italeri boxing [...]

1/48 Hobbyboss F8F-1 Bearcat

by Geoffrey Abreu on August 15, 2021 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

I started this one last year and then it spent a little time on the shelf of doom before I finished it this week. I sanded down the larger rudder trim tab that was for the -2 and filled and sanded the openings on the starboard wing that [...]
