Mirage IIIC Eduard 1/48

by Jérôme Chapelle on November 27, 2019 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Hi everyone, I wanted to share with you a model of one of my favorite planes, the Mirage III. This is an Eduard kit. It is not as good as the latest products of the brand, and has some fit issues. I represented the Mirage in flight, to [...]

by Eric Berg on November 25, 2019 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

This sortie worn Spitfire FR. Mk. XIVe is modeled after one assigned to the 28th RAF Squadron in Kuala Lumpur, British Malaya mid1946. I used Hannants Xtradecals, sheet X48127 for the markings. Much has been written about this latest [...]

1972 Tamiya 1/48 Ki84. Attempted stressed metal build.

by Jimmy Zed on November 25, 2019 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Another cheap as chips kit! I grabbed this when i picked up the previous Tamiya Raiden which was also a '70's vintage kit. Being so cheap i thought i would continue my exploration of techniques and stumbled across the stressed metal look. [...]

Zvezda Su-2 1/48

by George Chatzidakis on November 25, 2019 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Zvezda's Su-2 is a decent kit, with lots of detail for a fair price. It has its drawbacks, such as the void of detail bomb bay, but goes together without major issues. For this project I used Eduard's p.e. set as well as parts from Mars [...]

Minicraft XF5F-1 Skyrocket

by George R Blair Jr on November 25, 2019 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

I haven't posted anything for a while because I haven't built any models for a while because I was involved in building some buildings and scenery on my N Scale layout. Sorry, poor excuse. After I got to a stopping place, I really had [...]

Lindberg 1/48 Curtiss BFC-2

by Josh Patterson on November 24, 2019 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

Due to Robert Knaack's article on November third I was motivated to get off my butt, order some EZ Line and finish my Goshawk. It also got me excited to build the FBC-2 from Freedom Models! The problem was I, like many others have been put [...]

Finished Ju 87G-1

by Jordyn Collier on November 23, 2019 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

I liked building this, but the canopy gave me nightmares. Well, it is an old kit, soooo... but it is finished and nice. I'm glad I did a good job on it.

Dora Wings 1/48 Bf 109 V4 Prototype

by John Clark on November 23, 2019 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

This is my best guess at what this plane looked like. Opinions vary on this plane. Is it V3 or V4? Is the color silver paint, natural metal, natural metal with a tinted clear coat, light grey, or RLM 02? So, I just chose what I liked. [...]

AMP Sikorsky HO3S-1 1/48

by George Chatzidakis on November 22, 2019 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

Lovely kit by AMP of this rather odd-looking but useful early helicopter. Being a fan of the non-mainstream I couldn't help myself. The kit is very complete in its offering; Besides the plastic you get a p.e. fret and masks. I did some [...]
