by David A. Thomas on June 29, 2017 · in Aviation · 28 ≡

OK, folks, my first article on IModeler. As my profile states, I'd been out of the craft for about 35 years doing life, and now life seems to have granted me to get back into it. This featured model is my third essay (the previous being an [...]

by Paul Barber on June 29, 2017 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

Trivia question: What post WWII US Navy aircraft had no tail hook or wing walks? Thanks to Jaime, I finally took this one from the stash and got busy. What was supposed to be a "group" build, sort of went by the wayside, with a [...]

Having bought the original box almost 20 years ago, I never intended to build my flanker out of the box, so during the years the kit box was filled with almost every available aftermarket offering available. And even then I knew that the [...]

FM-1 Wildcat in 1/48

by Tony Prince on June 23, 2017 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

This is the Hobby Boss kit which I picked from the stash as something easy... You've probably done that: Parts fit was excellent, detail sharp & restrained but the undercarriage; that's another story; very fiddly & the prop needed [...]
