Mustang in the Meadow

by Keith on January 3, 2022 · in Aviation · 3 ≡

Small diorama I made my father for Christmas. I based the design off of a Plasmo video I saw awhile back. I used the Hasegawa P-51 Egg Plane kit. The tree was made from wire covered in plaster/mod podge as well as some mini leaves I found [...]

1/48 Eduard MiG-21PF

by Michael Drover on January 3, 2022 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

A kit that's now a few years old but still a favourite. This is the Weekend Edition of the 1/48th Eduard MiG-21PF. It's a very nice kit with a few more variants in the collection to eventually be done. Not much to say about it except that [...]

Another Year and Another Four Models

by Walt on January 3, 2022 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

I seem destined to never complete more then four models per year. Looking back when I am building, I only seem to be able to finish four per year. I guess considering my propensity of medium and larger aircraft in 1/48th scale I guess I [...]

My 2021- The Good, the Bad, the Lazy

by Jason Vukovich on January 3, 2022 · in Photo Collections · 6 ≡

Thought I would post my 2021 builds including a couple of misses (learning opportunities as a wise one would say). The "lazy" part of the title is that I build almost all my aircraft in flight but managed to only build one stand [...]

16 - Tamiya 1/12 Yamaha Virago

by Anthony Ricco on January 2, 2022 · in Automotive · 20 ≡

What a enjoyable build, my first motorcycle and I'll definitely do more - Bikes are so much fun. Didn't really like the red and gold scheme of the kit so decided to do a Copper, Chrome and black version. I also wanted to play around with [...]

1/35 Trumpeter T-62

by Mark P Hartig on January 2, 2022 · in Armor · 8 ≡

And another on the old build parade This was done in 2016, spring I think. It required considerable modification such as adjusting the suspension to reflect fire weakened tortion bars, the bottomed out cannon, the unshipped turret, and of [...]

The mouse that roared

by Mark P Hartig on January 2, 2022 · in Armor · 14 ≡

Dragon's 1/35 Tiger II, done in 2014. I recall this kit being quite un-Dragonish as the instructions were mistake free and clear. The fit was superb, and the Magic Track links were a perfect friction fit that made assembly quite [...]
