Hasegawa 1/48 Hs 129B-2

by Stan Traas on March 19, 2020 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

A very good kit, especially considering it's age. A lazy paint job on my part... no effort at topside shading/weathering, etc. I'm not such a fan of the Eastern front or Schlachtgeschwaderen, but it's a twin and not something you see [...]

by Roberto Lúcio - Bob on March 19, 2020 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

The North American Aviation T-6 is an advanced American single engine training aircraft used to train pilots from the United States and more than 60 other countries. I am particularly passionate about this plane, mainly for its use in the [...]

A Wolf In Cat's Wings

by Dan Lee on March 18, 2020 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

INTRODUCTION “There isn't enough thrust in Christendom to fix this plane.” With that sentence, Vice Admiral Thomas Connolly sealed the fate of the F-111B and his Navy career. Out of the ashes of a plane totally unsuited for carrier [...]

by David Kopielski on March 18, 2020 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

This is the Freedom Models 1/48 scale F-20A Tigershark. Built by Northrop (before they became Northrop Grumman). They used the F-5E as a base and modified many aspects of the frame and avionics to make the F-5G. When the USAF started the [...]

ARMA Hobby Yak-1b 1:72

by Dennis Meyers on March 18, 2020 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

In contrast to my Plattformwagen, I had a far better experience with this stunning kit. I can't sing its praises enough. Despite being a fairly young company, this kit's quality equals if not exceeds Tamiya and Eduard kits. I'm not [...]

Sabre Models Plattformwagen Type SSys 1:35

by Dennis Meyers on March 18, 2020 · in Uncategorized · 5 ≡

This model is intended to carry a Jadgpanther in rail transport mode which was inspired by Meng packaging this kit with their Jadgpanther kit, which is already in my stash. This kit is not for the faint hearted and previous experience [...]

#IntrepidCorrected – Revell’s Classic 1/720 Essex Class Carrier (Corrected)

by Michael Smith on March 18, 2020 · in Ships · 8 ≡

For many modelers of World War II ships, Revell's 1/720 scale model of the USS Intrepid (CV – 11) was an early favorite. It was cheap (two dollars, compared to four dollars for a Tamiya Akagi), easy to build, and gave you a big [...]

Tamiya 1/48th Scale Corsair

by Rick Schad on March 17, 2020 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

Well while we try and stay coronavirus free I am doing a lot of model building. Here is my finished Tamiya 1/48 scale F4-U Corsair. I have to say this was the worst fitting Tamiya kit that I have built. Weak wing assemblies, weak landing [...]
