F4U-5 Hasegawa/Revell-Germany

by Clark Cook on April 21, 2022 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

Here's my build of the very nice Hasegawa F4U-5 in the kit supplied markings of VF-14 Top Hats. Essentially out of the box with Model Master Glossy Sea Blue and a top coat of 50/50 Mr. Color Semi-gloss and gloss. I added just a bit of [...]

1/48 Dewoitine D.520

by John Healy on April 20, 2022 · in Aviation · 32 ≡

This is the Tamiya kit from 1996. Sadly, mine dwelt in the stash since around 1997. I finally got around to building it as a companion for my Hobbycraft Hawk 75. Not much to say other then it’s an excellent kit that builds really [...]

MIGS..... 1/72 too small...1/48 too big:)

by Clarence Novak on April 19, 2022 · in Uncategorized · 5 ≡

Excuse me for my need to whine... I want to build a MIG 29, Foxbat, or 30 whatever. I just got the 1/72 Trumpeter MIG 29SMT Fulcrum kit. Nice but for me...I don't build 1/72. The 1/48 scale is my preference for aircraft..but in 1/48 a [...]

My Meteor is a mix of Classic Airframes FR.9 and Tamiya F.1.

1/55th Starfix BF109 F (apparently its 1/48th BF109 E)

by Kits And Bits Scale Modelling on April 16, 2022 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

Starfix kit from the starfix challenge - IE to build it using basic tools and paints only. The most innacurate kit I've ever built, wildly inaccurate and in some cases, pure fiction.

1/48th Revell BF109 G10

by Kits And Bits Scale Modelling on April 16, 2022 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

Fictional markings, but camo and colours authentic. First ever go at mottling, its not great, but its not as bad as i expected it to be. Sorry for the bad photos.

1/48 Hasegawa N1K2 Shiden-Kai Prototype Number 3

by Erik J Kidd on April 13, 2022 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Here is the old 1/48 Hasegawa N1K2 Violet Lightning-Improved (Increased) straight out of the box. Made the tail decals for prototype #3 in Illustrator and, for some reason thought the 3rd prototype was the first with the larger but thicker [...]

1/48 Otaki Ki-44 Shoki

by Erik J Kidd on April 13, 2022 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

Here is my straight out of the box 1/48 Otaki Ki-44, kit decals and all. Working my way up to the nicer Hasegawa and Tamiya kits I have in my stash. Hope you enjoy and thank you for letting me share!

The brawler – Tamiya Mitsubishi J2M3 Interceptor Raiden 1/48 scale

by George Damian on April 12, 2022 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Mitsubishi J2M has always seemed to me like a brawler, a boxer determined to throw punches no matter what. Short, stubby, lacking in agility - but packing a lot of heat. The old Tamiya kit delivered a simple base for approaching this [...]
