Hasegawa 1/48 A6M2 Zero

With Louis Gardner's article series on Japanese aircraft colors ramping up ((link)), I thought I'd deliver my take on the early war Mitsubishi A6M2. Hasegawa's Zero has been around for 25 years now, and it is still a very nice kit. It [...]

Tamiya 1:48 Scale, Ki.61-I

1/48 Eduard Bf-109G-4, Regia Aeronautica

The appearance of the Gustav series of Messerschmitt’s Bf-109 was due to the ineptness of the Luftwaffe high command in developing an acceptable production successor to the aging design, and reflected the lack of long-range planning on [...]
