Messerschmitt Bf 109 E-7 Trop 1/48

by Erik Gjørup on March 31, 2019 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

My first go at airbrushing was the Tamiya Bf 109 E-7 in the all too well known red 8 colours (OK - they are very nice colours). There has been incorporated a few changes; the step has been carved out as has a few of the cooling outlets [...]

Airfix 1/48 Walrus

by Robert Joseph Cookson on March 30, 2019 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

I can't rate this kit highly enough. It was an absolute dream to build, and I managed to finish it in less than a month, in no small part due to the fact that I only once had to trim something to fit (I took about .5 of a millimetre from [...]

by Tom Cleaver on March 30, 2019 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

by Louis Gardner on March 30, 2019 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

This one is hot off the press... I finished it up just in time to make the deadline for the 100 Years of the RAF Group Build that was the brain child of Paul Barber. @yellow10 Thanks Paul ! I also want to take this opportunity and thank [...]

Bombs, rockets … when do we stop making them? ..

by Maxim Bylkin on March 29, 2019 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

Hello to all! My question is rather rhetorical, and does not require an answer. But I am sure that without bombs our life would have been completely different, and I hope that someday it will be so. (hope dies last ) For now we are doing [...]

1/48 Blackburn Roc

by dale travis on March 26, 2019 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

This is the Special Hobby kit and it shares quite a few parts with their earlier Skua kit. One problem this leads to is the Skua had two fuel tanks behind the pilot, the Roc one. SH give you the same parts for the Roc as in the Skua kit. [...]

Tamiya 1/48 P-51 Mustang

by George V Guimaraes on March 26, 2019 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

Hello, This is my view of one famous "Blue Noser Bastard From Bodney". Neeedless to say the kit is superb, no need to use any putty at all. It seems, looking at the few pictures available, this particular bird was kept in good [...]

Bf109E3 – the Royal Yugoslav Air Force

by Djordje Colovic on March 26, 2019 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

The third decade of 20th century was world’s turbulent turning point. Germany was ruled by total dictatorship, Italy was finding way into world’s politics, Britany and France were asleeped…and everyone was rearming and arming for the [...]
