Review: Eduard 1/48 Bf-109G-4/trop

Somehow, I did this model in 2018 and wrote a review, and then it ended up in "The Department of Lost" for two years till I rediscovered it this past week when I couldn't find the review at M2. The Bf 109 G-series was developed [...]

ESCI A-1H Skyraider 1:48

Well, there I was, 6 weeks into a really bad case of cabin fever. I was waiting for some add-ons for a Lorna that I wanted to build for the WW2 Japanese group, and I was reading a book on the Skyraider in Vietnam. Of course, I decided to [...]
