Tamiya Spitfire Mk.IX. 1/32nd. scale.
As much as I love Spitfires, this one took me rather a long time; six month, give or take & I completed a few others while I was having a break. Lovely detail & fit & absolutely spot on for shape & proportion. I kept the [...]
Another 78th FG P-47 – Frank Oiler’s “Eileen” – 1/32 hasegawa
With two other 78th FG P-47s up today, I might as well follow the theme. I've done a lot of studying this past year of these P-47s while writing "Aces of the 78th Fighter Group" (which Osprey will publish this coming [...]
You KNOW I gotta throw down on this Wildcat thing...
but it's gonna be 1/32...Trumpeter's F4F-3 "early". Built this one as a Wake Island defender, before there was Silver Wing decals, by patching together available stuff. Engine is wired, gun bays detailed and I had to cast my own [...]
1:32 scale Trumpeter P-47D-15-Re, “Thunderbolt”
Restarting a long stalled project from the "Shelf of DOOM"...
After building the Hasegawa kit, (Which is a fine model by the way) I decided to get into THIS kit, because other than the old Revell offering, it's the only 1:32 [...]
1:32 scale, Hasegawa P-47M-1-Re, "Thunderbolt"
This is another one of my "Jugs" that currently reside at the American Airpower Museum in Farmingdale, NY. I think between Koppos and myself, we have a few there... ;).
It's a big model, so before you get into building her, make [...]
21st Century 1:32 scale, Macchi C.202 Folgore
I build this kit last year, it's a Machi C.205 Veltro converted into a Macchi C.202 Folgore.
In my younger years (late '80's last century) I had build the 1:48 Tauro Models, Macchi C.202 Folgore and still have that plane. Everytime a [...]
Hasegawa 1:32 Mitsubishi J2M3 Raiden “Jack”
This is my Raiden which I 've build in the summer of last year.
Although it was a easy kit to build, I had some issues with the kit. Some internal parts in the fuselage and the wing spar made the join of fuse and wings very difficult.
I [...]
Silver Wings 1/32 He-51B
There is a saying in aviation design that, "if it looks right, it is right." While this is generally true, it was unfortunately not the case as regards the Heinkel He-51, which was a completely orthodox biplane of [...]
My version of a big Japanese girl....
J2M3 Raiden, Hasegawa's new 1/32 effort, done last year. A marvelous kit, a real box-shaker. Built OOB, spent more time on the cockpit "good luck doll' than the paint job. Looking forward muchly to Hasegawa's upcoming NIK2 Shiden [...]
