New Project: Vintage Tamiya 1/48 F-15A

by paul teixeira on October 29, 2018 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

This kit is old! Maybe I should say "Vintage". I remember this being on the shelves as a young model maker and not being able to afford this F-15 because it was a Tamiya...The Good Stuff! BUT, unfortunately these days it is [...]

I was looking at headlines and came across…

by Rick Jacobs on October 28, 2018 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

I was looking at headlines and came across Tommy Killander USAF 104 Starfighter. Like it very much so I decided to post mine own that I done about 4 years ago. By the way this is not to compete against Tommy's 104. This is when I first [...]

Academy F-14A 1:48 (1988 tool)

by Matthew Fletcher on October 28, 2018 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

I must say I was always intimidated by builds of modern aircraft but this build changed my mind. The kit is from 1988 and does not stand up to the new Tamiya kit but I managed to have a lot of fun with it. Lots of fit issues and old decals [...]

1/48 Monogram P-51B “Ole II”

by Brian Riedel on October 27, 2018 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Here's my favorite Monogram kit of all time, the 1/48 P-51B. Over the years I must have built at least six of these (with another 5 in the stash). It is the original mold kit, not the Pro-Modeler re do that came later. It was built pretty [...]

Kitty Hawk F2H-2 Banshee

by Marvin Reyes on October 27, 2018 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

This is the Kitty Hawk F2H-2 done almost OOB, using kit decals. I added Furball canopy decals, along with a scratched metal pitot. Reading the reviews of this KH kit is not very much fun, because they highlight a lot of problems that this [...]

The Right Stuff – Bundesfighter goes to Hollywood

by Tommy Killander on October 27, 2018 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

This build that I did as a tribute to one of my favorite movies - The Right Stuff, made by Philip Kaufmann in 1983. The Eduard 1/48 "Bundesfighter" kit (reboxed Hasegawa with some aftermarket) has the decals for the aircraft [...]

1/48 Seafire Ib

by John Healy on October 27, 2018 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

This is something I’ve been working on part time over the past year while waiting for things to dry, set, etc...on other projects. It’s a Hasegawa limited edition kit that I picked up awhile back. Basically, it’s their Spitfire Vb [...]

My Collection

by Jonathan Zwierko on October 26, 2018 · in Photo Collections · 12 ≡

Hi! I'm new to iModeler and thought I'd introduce myself by showing off my cool little collection. These are all paint-brushed models. Feel free to question or comment. I like to think of myself as an intermediate modeler because I have [...]

by Martin Dytrych on October 25, 2018 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

Hi everybody, it is my pleasure to present here my last build. It is really special and means a lot for me. I would like to pay tribute to all RAF pilots , especially Czechoslovaks, who fought in WW2 for our freedom. I always wanted to [...]
