...from 1989, Monogram McDonnell-Douglas AV-8B Harrier II

by Gary Brantley on November 16, 2021 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

The F-102 is my most recent finished model and when it went to the airport, it was accompanied by another photo-virgin, this AV-8B Harrier II. Done in Marine markings, she was built during the spring of 1989. It was the fourth model I [...]

1/144 DC-9-33F – SAS 75th Anniversary Group Build.

by John Healy on November 16, 2021 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

This is an original issue Airfix kit from 1973. I picked it up at a show back in 2017 for $4 US. I dabble in airliners and Douglas products are my favorites. It’s not a bad kit 50 years later. It’s only real failing is that the [...]

Pee Pjin JR-1 Hua Shang Ling 1/48 Chinatown Whatif Model

by Josef Rössner on November 16, 2021 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

Chinese fighter, a cheaper answer to the Russian Su-34. It is characterized by the absence of a kitchen for long flights, due to the placement of a box of rice and chopsticks under the seats. The only known film was alienated by the Czech [...]

Ghost in the Shell – T-34 (RFM 1:35 kit + MiniArt engine & transmission)

by Aleksandar Sekularac on November 15, 2021 · in Armor · 11 ≡

Hello y’all, I’m back after a looong hiatus. In these strange times things are happening that apparently escaped from a bad movie script; if one had woken up from 2-years hibernation, he’d probably struggle to recognize the planet. [...]

13 - Academy 1/48 AH-61D Longbow Apache

by Anthony Ricco on November 15, 2021 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

This kit was a real love/hate situation. I love the Apache and really wanted to extend myself and try new things and put a lot of effort into finishing it off well. The hate part comes around in the bad fit and engineering of this [...]

Eduard 1/48 P-39N Airacobra

by Tom Bebout on November 15, 2021 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Should credit Tom Cleaver's GB titled Build 'Em or Bin 'Em for helping me get the old Mojo juices flowing again. I've had little or no time at the bench for several months but hopefully that will now change. Started this kit long ago as [...]

SMW rides again

by Tom Cleaver on November 15, 2021 · in Show Reports · 8 ≡

(link) Unfortunately we don't get the great coverage we used to when Marcus went to the show, but this collection will keep some of us happy. I really liked the War Horse, which apparently took the top prize, deservedly so. There's a lot [...]

Hasegawa 1/12 SUZUKI GT380B

by dagored on November 15, 2021 · in Automotive · 16 ≡

Hasegawa's 1/12 scale kit I have assembled the first Hasegawa old road bike, the GT380. The spokes on the wheels have been re-tensioned with metal wire, the cables have been replaced with thinner ones, and some of the fins on the engine [...]
