by David Meyer on February 26, 2024 · in Aviation · 38 ≡

This is my first build post on iModeler, and it is the 1/48 F-5E/N by AFC Club. I've always liked the camo schemes of the VFC-111 "Sundowners" aircraft, and chose to do the 3 grays one, with the decals for it included in the box. [...]

Airfix 1/48 Fairey Gannet AS.4 – 815 NAS Ark Royal 1958.

by Alistair Gauld on February 26, 2024 · in Aviation · 33 ≡

What a kit. It all just fits together. The wings are still just a dry fit. I need to give a massive shout out to Airfix and their customer service as they replaced my clear sprue after i'd cracked two of the canopies whilst polishing. I [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 AV-8B Harrier II Plus

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

The Harrier II Plus is not among Hasegawa's finest models. It has fit issues and sparse cockpit. Yet, thanks to the finely engraved panel lines and accurate dimensions it can be build into a descent representation of American development [...]
