by Scott Nelson on January 20, 2020 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

Another one of my older projects to archive, here’s my 1/72 Revell AG Hawker Hunter Mk. 58. I think I made this one between 2008 and 2010. I do remember the outer wing leading edge extensions were molded with the upper wing half and [...]

John or Nathan?

by Scott Nelson on January 19, 2020 · in Figures · 6 ≡

In an effort to get back to archiving the models in my collection, I present my version of the Fort Duquesne Military Miniatures 7th Cavalry Officer in 1/9th scale. It’s pretty obviously based on John Wayne as Captain Nathan Brittles. I [...]

This is new tooled Italeri kit (scale 1:32) and it is very straightforward build with very few issues. I had troubles to glue rear part of the fuselage because when using kit the engine support I was 3 ° off axis (to right side). I [...]

by Thomas Peters on January 19, 2020 · in Aviation · 3 ≡

Tamiya Swordfish Mk.II 1/48, Any Color as long it's Black

by Aleksandar Sekularac on January 18, 2020 · in Aviation · 30 ≡

In my black book there’s a list and in that list a word “Stringbag”, written a long time ago. The ink is all pale and faded-like, but I can cross it now! It wasn’t until I tied my horse in front of the iModeler Saloon many moons [...]
