Hobby Craft 1/32nd Mustang MK.1A/F-6A (Kit #1713)
Subject Background:
In March of 1943, 25 F-6A/P-51s were assigned to the 154th Observation Squadron of the 15th Air Force stationed at Oujda in French Morocco, North Africa. While operating there, No. 225 Squadron of the RAF frequently [...]
Are you a Blochhead? Bloch 152, France 1940....
Azur's rather nice kit of the ill-fated Bloch 152, a machine rushed into service to fast with too many flaws. Always one to build weirder 1/32 kits, I picked this one up at the '05 Nats, and built it around '08. It has a resin cowl and [...]
Dragon 1/32 Bf110C Nightfighter WIP – No Black paint was used in the commission of this ‘sin’….
This is a WIP of my 1/32 Dragon 110C-7 kit, painted as L1+DH of NJG3, as it was photographed at Benghazi, Libya in 1941, with replacement tail surfaces from a Dayfighter.
What makes it "interesting" is that I used no black paint [...]
F-80C Shooting Star in 1/32 scale.by Czech Model.
I am very fortunate to have a well trained son who shares my interest in model aircraft, to the extent that he buys me a kit from time to time for my birthdays. This one's from two years ago.
Like a few other well known aircraft from the [...]
Review: Tamiya 1/32 F4U in-work
I received my new Tamiya F4U-1 Birdcage Corsair a few weeks ago and I've been making steady progress on it. The thing that strikes me the most with this kit is just how well engineered this kit is. The first picture shows all the major [...]
The rest of the Tamiya Corsair photos
Due to space limitations and ease of download, Scott doesn't always publish all photos I provide for a review. Since people have been interested in this kit, I am putting up all the photos I sent him here for your viewing. I think these [...]
(Drumroll) Presenting….. The Tamiya Corsair
Here's a few shots of the model completed today. It's done as Ken Walsh's first "No. 13," BuNo 02350, in which he may have scored a couple kills (records are unclear), but it definitely became an "ace's plane" when he [...]
1/32 Tamiya P-51D Mustang LOU IV
Here are some pictures of my last Mustang.
LOU IV built mostly out of box except for Barracudacast wheels and EagleCals decals.
Painting was done with Gunze Sangyo acrylics and Alclad metalizers.
Happy modelling
Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire Vb, S/Ldr Jan Zumbach of 303 Squadron
The Hasegawa Spitfire Vb dates to the mid-1970s. Despite having raised panel detail, with rescribing it makes up into a nice model, though I recommend picking up both the resin cockpit and the Rotol prop from Greymatter figures, both of [...]
For those who can’t afford the big Tamiya – try the 21 Century Toys Corsair
Here is the 21st Century Toys F4U-1A Corsair, done as Ike Kepford's VF-17 F4U-1A, and another one modified with the Montex conversion set to do an anonymous Marine F4U-1 "birdcage" circa the Rabaul campaign in late [...]
