Yak-130 of Myanmar Air Force (Zvezda 1/48)

by Dmitry Stropalov on December 15, 2019 · in Aviation · 34 ≡

Modern aviation is a completely new thing to me. Mainly I'm interested in airplanes of 30th till 50th, because... well, I don't know why. Maybe because of a sound of big piston engines, maybe because I like some spinning stuff, like props. [...]

Afternoon all, Its been a while since I've posted anything. I haven't finished anything over the past 6 months, but I've got a c**p ton (it's a technical term) in progress. I'm cranking hard on them to try and get them done before we [...]

by Carmelo Rodrigo on December 15, 2019 · in Automotive · 9 ≡

The story of a nightmare This is the most poor quality model I have assembled in a long time. For me Italieri has done a terrible job with this kit, the plastic is very rigid and it is split by itself, practically all the pieces have [...]

Monogram 1/48 P-47D The Turtle No. 10

by Mark Krumrey on December 15, 2019 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

I have always liked and still do like Monogram 1/48 scale kits, raised panel lines notwithstanding. They have the look, low parts count and build into a nice model. I first built this kit back in the late '80's when my son received it as [...]
