1:48th scale modelling

1/48 Airfix Blenheim Mk1

My first completed model this year... I think. Bristol Blenheim Mk1 Green 139 RAF 1938. 1/48 Airfix kit. Went together very nicely. I'm so excited that Airfix has produced so many wonderful 1/48 Raf subjects. I'm sure they will keep them [...]

Tamiya A6M5a Zero 1/48

Hi there! Just finished this nice Tamiya kit. Everything OOB and the only real flaw was one of the decals sheet, the smaller one, most stencils. Without exception, all of them cracked as soon as I tried to move them. I used warm water, [...]

Hasegawa, 1:48 Scale P-40, “Kittyhawk III” (Longtail ‘K’), RNZAF

I think Hasegawa's line of P-40 kits are pretty much, the best of the type in this scale. They are loaded with fine detail and the fit is pretty good throughout, suffice to say, they are kits that have been very well engineered. They have [...]

Dewoitine D.520, Armée de l’Air GC I/3

Hello imodelers, I am happy to present you my fourth achievement to imodeler: the Dewoitine D.520 Tamiya at 1/48 scale. This aircraft occupies an important place in the heart of every French modelers, so I had to make one. The D.520 is [...]

My First Vacuform Kit

I'm hoping some day to snag a Vac Wings O2U Corsair to fill out my growing collection of dive bombers (as well as my collection of Corsairs), but since I've never done a vacuform kit before, I figured I should practice first. So I bought [...]

1/48 Airfix Hunter F.6

Just completed! New Airfix Hunter F6 with Xtradecals for a Hunter attached to Tactical Weapons Unit circa 1979. Additional extras are the pilot from PJ Productions and the Master pitot tube. I also pinched some drop tanks from the Academy [...]
