WWII Soviet airplane – 1/48

Hello again, these are two Soviet World War II aircraft kits in 1:48 scale. The mig 3 is a trumpeter kit, the Yak 3 is a Svezda kit. I must say that there is no comparison in quality. Trumpeter beats Svezda 2-0. The Mig is with a [...]

This is my contribution to the MiG Group Build that Sebastijan Videc was so kind to start and moderate. It’s an early Trumpeter kit from around 2004 that’s been in my stash since at least 2009. It’s a solid kit that assembled [...]

My Curtiss p 40 N made starting from the Eduard 1/48 scale box that incorporates the MAUVE mold,with the addition of photoetched part and a New large Decals sheet. The model was painted with gunze color trying to simulate a wear [...]

This was a project I wanted to do for a while now, paint something with D-day stripes and natural metal. A very satisfying project, I especially like the blue nose. #tamiya #P51Mustang #plamo
