by Fly Past Rush on March 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

If you haven't built a 1/48th Tamiya Mosquito you may want to consider one. A model of this caliber can serve as a benchmark of what an excellent kit encompasses or just be that great, low-stress build when you need one. (Say for example, [...]

Nemeth Parasol

by Chas Bunch on March 22, 2025 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

Here’s my latest build - the Nemeth Parasol from Avis (Ukraine) in 1:48. I needed a simple no-brainer with a low parts count after my last big project. This one fit the bill - good fit, simple one-color paint job, and good decals. My [...]

by Josef Rössner on March 22, 2025 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

When my daughter asked me what I wanted for my birthday, I said - buy me a model and innocently added which one you like. And she got this... a helicopter. I don't build helicopters, I don't understand them and I don't understand why they [...]

Messerspit 1/48

by Josef Rössner on March 22, 2025 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

Since my love is Spitfires in all their forms, I definitely had to have this German hybrid on my shelf. I chose the Mk.Vb kit from Tamiya and the conversion kit from LF models. It was not a good choice. The resin was bad, full of bubbles. [...]
