Dogs of War: 1/48th Revell F-86D Dog Sabre

by Fly Past Rush on October 23, 2024 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

Every once in a while you find a kit that was better than expected, case in point for me: the 1/48th Revell F-86D Dog Sabre. My kit builds into an early F-86D (without the braking parachute) although the version with the parachute housing [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Do 335A Pfeil

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on October 23, 2024 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

The clean lines of the Pfeil makes Tamiya's kit a pleasure to build and the authentic look of the model when completed. The only criticism I have is the rather modular design of cockpit components and the instrument decal.

1/35 Tamiya DAK Pz IV

by John J Licht on October 22, 2024 · in Armor · 10 ≡

Got a great deal on a Tamiya 1970’s panzer IV. I built it mostly stock except for the tracks because they were very brittle and broke as soon as I put any tension on them. I had a set of Academy single link tracks which I used. I [...]

Camouflage & Markings: Fw 190A Experten of the Western Front

by Editor on October 22, 2024 · in Reference · 13 ≡

Introduced in 1941, the rugged and versatile Fw 190A became known as the ‘workhorse’ of the Luftwaffe. Yet, its prominence coincided with the progressing decline of the Luftwaffe’s fighter arm from 1942 to 1945—a trend that became [...]
