1/72 Mosquito PR. XVI.

by John Healy on December 17, 2024 · in Aviation · 28 ≡

This is the recent Airfix kit built with Barracuda 3D printed landing gear. It’s an amazing addition to an already solid kit. I also used Kits World seatbelts and Eduard masks for the glass. Precut masks are a lifesaver on 1/72 kits [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 Ju 87D-3/5 Stuka

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on December 17, 2024 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Winter camouflage patterns that appeared in the Eastern Front were factory or field applied. Naturally, factory applied white was more durable than the field applied scheme. Yet, factory applied white was also stained by exhaust residues [...]

Zoukei Mura Bf109 G The best 1/32 scale kit ever produced

by Rick Schad "The Pope of Plastic" on December 16, 2024 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Well what can I say? Hands down the best 1/32 scale kit I have ever had the pleasure to build. FINALLY a kit with absolutely zero flaws! Yes they are expensive kits (around 150.00 -200.00) but they should be twice that cost. The [...]

by Michael Smith on December 15, 2024 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

I finally got the last of my three 1941 IJN aircraft across the finish line today. I built a 1989 boxing of Hasegawa's Kate as Cdr Fuchida's aircraft at Pearl Harbor, AI-301, piloted by Lt. Mitsuo Matsuzaki. Fuchida led Akagi's high [...]

Accurate Miniatures 1/48 IL-2 Sturmovik

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on December 15, 2024 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

The IL-2 Sturmovik represents much of the Russian spirit characterized by ruggedness and durability. And temporary winter camouflage adorns this aircraft with the atmosphere that prevailed in the Eastern Front. Accurate Miniature's [...]

Grumman G-22 Gulfhawk II

by Chas Bunch on December 15, 2024 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Here’s my build of the Grumman G-22 Gulfhawk II from Accurate Miniatures in 1:48. A really nice kit OOB, like their F3F-1 and F3F-2 kits. One of the most exciting aircraft of the interwar period was the Grumman G-22, a one of a kind [...]
