1/48 AZ model L-13 Blanik

by PHILLIP EVANS on August 24, 2021 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Another recently completed model. My Admiral 1/48 L-13 Blanik glider model. I had to make the rear thin line decals as the kit ones just broke apart. The ones on the wings are painted on. The kit wingspan is 33.5cm. I have done the scheme [...]

by Jim Sullivan on August 23, 2021 · in Aviation · 28 ≡

I Just finished building this 1/48th Tamiya P-47D in the markings (Rain-Dear) flown by Lt Clark Bresmeth of the 510th FS while stationed in France in the Autumn of 1944. That Tamiya kit was a dream to build and quite well engineered and [...]

Eduard 1/48 Messerschmitt Bf 109 G2 Trop

by George V Guimaraes on August 23, 2021 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

Hello! Latest project, another '109, always a nice model. This one from Eduard is very good, came with some resin, PE and canopy masks. I've tried to display a very weathered one, as I think it should be the case operating in north Africa [...]

1/48 Grand Phoenix FJ-4B (sort of ish) Fury

by Dan Lee on August 23, 2021 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

The FJ Fury series was originally a straight winged naval fighter designed and built by North American Aviation which was the basis for the F-86 Sabre. The later marks of the Fury added swept wings (based on the F-86 wing), more powerful [...]

Boulton Paul Defiant NF.I

by Michael Turner on August 22, 2021 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

This model represents a Defiant NF.I of No. 264 Sqn. flown by Sqn. Ldr. Philip Saunders, amongst others, between December 1940 and February 1941. I picked this scheme for the unusual fuselage roundel. Mid war theory held that wars would [...]

XA2D-1 Skyshark – monster figher that failed (ClearProp 1:48)

by Martin Dytrych on August 20, 2021 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

It is big bird, looking either elegant and weird. It was planned as turboprop-powered heavy attack fighter for US Navy carrier decks in 1950s. However, Navy did not allowed the plane to operate due to troublesome power unit and due to its [...]

Unloved and Unwanted

by Phillip Friddell on August 19, 2021 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

Everybody remembers the 1/48th scale Airfix Bf109E, right? It was one of the earlier products of the New and Improved Airfix and was a greatly anticipated kit prior to its release, but its welcome was fated to be short-lived. The kit was [...]

F-4E Phantom II

by Jesus Hermosell on August 16, 2021 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

This is my new job, an Italeri Phantom II. The model is old and very very bad. Only the stencils are saved. I have riveted it and added the landing gear cables. I have also detailed the AIM-9 Sidewinders. I hope you like it. See you next [...]

Bf-109K-4 Hasegawa 1/48 "Yellow 13"

by Walt on August 15, 2021 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

It's not like we don't see enough 109's here, but I know for some you can never have too many. I finished this one a while back, and really enjoyed the kit. I am not an aficionado so I cannot attest to the kits accuracy or lack thereof. [...]
