1/48 Focke-Wulf Fw-200C-4 'Condor'

by Thomas Probert on August 29, 2024 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

Greetings all! Here's my summer holidays project - the Trumpeter 1/48 scale Focke-Wulf Fw-200C-4 Condor. I started this kit with the intention of it being some light relief and a relatively quick and simple build as a nice break from the [...]

ProModeler/Monogram 1/48 A-26B Invader

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on August 29, 2024 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

In spite of inaccuracies in shape and raised panel surface texture, Monogram's Invader is a comfortable build that retains the characteristic features of the aircraft.

Three kits combined for the Mistel I

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on August 28, 2024 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

Mistel I combination comprised of a Ju 88A-4 and Bf 109F-4 aircraft. It is probably the only Mistel variant that was operational during the attacks on the Mulberry Harbor and bridges in the Eastern Front. To build the 1/48 Mistel I used [...]

A revolution dressed in corrugated metal: Hugo Junkers ‘tin donkey’ D.1

by Roland Sachsenhofer on August 28, 2024 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Whichever of the numerous stories associated with Hugo Junkers‘ amazing life and work you take in, you can be sure of one impression: whether as an Aachen professor of thermodynamics, entrepreneur, innovator in aircraft and aircraft [...]

Airfix 1/48 Bulldog Mk.II

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on August 27, 2024 · in Aviation · 32 ≡

A well designed and highly detailed kit. Yet, it is a build challenge. It seems that the intricate detailing of parts is beyond the styrene material molding abilities. For example, propeller and engine parts leave gaps in connection [...]

1/48 Albatros D.III

by John Healy on August 27, 2024 · in Aviation · 25 ≡

This is the old Glencoe kit that came out in 1989 or 1990. The WWI Group Build inspired me to pull this out of the back of the display case and have a look at it. I built it as soon as it hit the LHS shelves. It was pretty crude by [...]

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on August 25, 2024 · in Aviation · 30 ≡

One of the finest models made by ProModeller.

Airfix 1/48 Supermarine Walrus Mk.I

by Alistair Gauld on August 24, 2024 · in Aviation · 28 ≡

A kit I've been wanting to build for a long time now and when Airfix announced the reissue in January I had my preorder ready. And what a kit. It just fits together. Even the canopy clicked into place. There was barely any filler used, [...]

Polikarpov I-16

by Chas Bunch on August 24, 2024 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

I just read Tom Cleaver's post of his build of this fine kit and was inspired to post mine after I decided not to bother. I usually shoot a few photos of a new build indoors to check for flaws, omissions, mistakes, etc. Before I could [...]

Nikolai Polikarpov was perhaps the leading Russian aircraft designer in the early days of the Soviet aircraft industry. In 1918, he was put in charge of preparing manufacture of the DH-4 at the GAZ-1 facility where at least 63 were [...]
