1:32 Scale, Trumpeter, F4F-4, 'Wildcat'
Decent kit that went together very well. Building her with wings deployed was a little bit of a pain in the hind quarters, While Trumpeter gives you the option of folded or extended wings, I think the kit is designed more to have the [...]
Wingnut Wings 1/32 Sopwith Pup RFC
Wingnut Wings Sopwith Pup boasts with excellent surface detail. Yet, since it is a bi-lane from WWI it requires comprehensive wiring for control cables, engine ignition wires, and fuselage bracing wires. Wings assembly is tricky. All the [...]
A giant spreads its wings: B-24 GR.Mk.VI, 10th Squadron RCAF
A quote from Paul Kennedy's book "Engineers of Victory" should open this article: "Closing the air gap did not happen because some great person decreed it. There was a group of chiefly Canadian air engineers who in early [...]
Ju EF-126 Elli, Das Werk 1/32
This is the Junkers Ef-126 "Elly", a german experimental fighter in 1/32. This is the single version Argus 014 in the "what if" unknown unit late 1946 scheme. Great kit, nice decals and instructions with various [...]
ICM 1/32 Stearman PT-13 Kaydet
ICM's Stearman is a very nice kit. Texture surface and details are excellent. The build is free of hassles and the join of wings to struts is fair. Most of the location holes for the cables are marked. Yet, being a biplane the build is [...]

While researching this project online , I read many negative reviews of this kit because of various [...]
1/32 Lockheed P-38 Lightning Trumpeter 02227
At the end of last year I finished this P-38 from Trumpeter. Not a very easy kit to build. There were almost no parts that fitted together without problems. A lot of filling, sanding and repairing lost surface details. If it had not been [...]
Trumpeter 1/32 Swordfish Mk. I
Trumpeter's Swordfish is a great kit. Not only that it is an enlargement of Tamiya's magnificent 1/48th kit, but also that it is impressive thanks to its large size.
The texture surface of the biplane is largely canvas. The texture surface [...]
1/32 scale Dauntless kit by Trumpeter
Here we have my 8th build of the year, the 1/32 scale SBD3 Dauntless by Trumpeter. Molding is exceptional, body and cowl are clear plastic for some reason, which I find useless. The instructions are typical Trumpeter, filled with mystery [...]
Trumpeter 1/32 TBF-1C Avenger
Avengers flying in the Atlantic Ocean were usually camouflaged in the white and grey that creates a good contrast on models.
This Atlantic Avenger was built using the excellent kit by Trumpeter. It is a design enlargement of the great [...]
