by Rafi Ben-Shahar on July 11, 2024 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Airfix 1/72 Shackleton MR.2

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on July 10, 2024 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

A great aircraft and a very good kit. The only problem that I had with construction was the fuselage halves seam that was not easy to fix. The decals did not preform well and needed additional solvents to settle in place.

1/48 scale Bristol kit by Eduard

by Rick Schad on July 10, 2024 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

I love Eduard more and more, especially their WW1 aircraft. Great detail, great instructions and plenty of options. This Bristol is a challenging build, especially when it comes to rigging. If you haven’t done rigging before, this [...]
