Tamiya 1/48 Sea Harrier FRS.1

A build I thoroughly enjoyed. Everything that is reported regarding the fit of this kit is accurate but I was trying to stretch myself. Primed with Tamiya Neutral Grey. Painted with Colourcoats Dark Admiralty Grey, Barley Grey, Light [...]

PA-48 Enforcer

Hi All, To me, the PA-48 Enforcer is probably one of THE coolest looking airplanes ever produced and when I saw one at the USAF Museum, I knew one day I needed to build a model of it. So, when Halberd Models, from the Ukraine, had a [...]

Dora Wings Vultee P-66 Vanguard

Hi All! First, let me say that the people at Dora Wings are getting kits out under the conditions that they are ( the War) impresses me greatly, so any grievances are really superficial and are to warn you of any pitfalls. I have ordered [...]

HobbyBoss 1/48 F4F-3 Wildcat (Early)

I was drawn to this kit not because I am a huge fan of wildcats but because I am a huge fan of stretching my dollar. So I was interested when I saw this on Amazon for $25 including shipping. This feisty little fighter builds up very nice [...]

Hawker Sea Fury in Korean War

Too late for second world war, but ready to be leading Royal Navy's fighter in Korea. Hawker Sea Fury was pinnacle of Hawker's piston-engine fighter development. The type served throughout the conflict with distinction in both FAA and [...]

HOBBYBOSS Me262 B-1a/U1

Having almost got my health back (not 100%, but getting there), i decided i'd build this HobbyBoss Me262 nightfighter. Fitment was good, apart from the shaped metal nose weight that needed a little grinding to allow the nose to fit [...]

A 3rd RNLAF fighter I want to show you.

This time also some WIP pictures and background info. Hope you like it! During the period 1955–1959, the Royal Netherlands Air Force (Koninklijke Luchtmacht) equiped 322, 323, 324, 325, 326 and 327 Squadrons at Leeuwarden, Soesterberg [...]

Here’s another one. The F84G Thunderjet.

Because of the warm welcome I thought it would be nice to do another post today. Hope you like this old 50’s jet. This warbird flew with RNLAF from 1952 until 1956. It was quite rudimentary and notorious because of its unreliability, [...]

My first post, the RNLAF (KLU) F-104G Starfighter

Hi all, I am from the Netherlands and picked up scale modeling again a few years ago after a break of some 40 odd years. Currently I am working on a series of planes that have flown or still fly in the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) [...]

1/48th Monogram/Hasegawa F4U-5 Corsair

From time to time, when a picture grabs my attention, I often consider attempting to model it. This was the case with the F4U-5 that I wanted to replicate. The Monogram version of the Hasegawa F4U-5 kit was good to work with for the most [...]
