Cessna O-2A “Oscar Deuce” – 1:48 (Testors/Italeri)

by Alessandro Parmigiani on April 17, 2017 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Hi all, following my previous articles about Vietnam era helicopters, this is time for a fixed-wing! In late ‘60s USAF introduced twin-powered Cessna O-2A to replace single engine Cessna O-1 (my next project). Testors/Italeri kit is [...]

Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk XII

by Dale Cole on April 15, 2017 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

Finished this up today so that my hobby tables would be available for Easter dinner (paint stains and all!) Have built 5 of the new tool Airfix kits in the past year. Had more issues with this one than the others. That being said I think [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Focke Wulf Fw-190 F-8, MTO, Italy WWII

by Chuck A. Villanueva on April 15, 2017 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

Finally able to post this build that was completed in January. Tamiya's excellent Fw-190 F-8, in a desert Scheme of RLM 79/80/76. It was completed about the same time as the D-9 posted earlier, but delayed only because I had snapped the [...]

ITALERI 1:48 SPITFIRE Mk. IXc

by George Henderson on April 15, 2017 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

This was originally going to be the oddball "beer truck" version as shown on the box-top but investigation has led me to believe that this is now a myth at least as depicted by the aircraft shown. I have found pictures of an [...]

Eduard 1/48 Bf-109G-2

by Tom Cleaver on April 14, 2017 · in Aviation · 4 ≡

The Bf-109G in Finnish Service: During the Winter War of 1939-40, Finland obtained 24 Brewster B-239 fighters, which were the first completely-modern fighters to equip the air force. These were U.S. Navy F2A-1s, and became the first-line [...]

AMK Mig-31

by Alan Price on April 13, 2017 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

Here are a few pictures of my AMK Mig-31 which I finished recently. This will be featured in Model Airplane International soon. This is a superb kit, the way it has been engineered to fit together hiding almost all the seams is wonderful. [...]

1/48 Eduard F6F-3 weekend edition

by Dan DeSilva on April 7, 2017 · in Aviation · 25 ≡

I have wanted to build an F6F-3 with red surrounds on the insignia since I first saw the initial Hasegawa F6F-3 boxing. I like to research my subjects, which can be very interesting and a little deflating at the same time. Apparently it is [...]

1/48 AMK Mig-31 Foxhound

by Brian Scott on April 7, 2017 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

Finally finished after being started nearly a year ago. Loved everybit of the build. Painted with Tamiya paints and weathered with Mig wash 🙂

1/48 F-18B conversion of Monogram F/A-18

by Dan DeSilva on April 6, 2017 · in Uncategorized · 24 ≡

I completed this over Christmas break 2016, but have not been able to photograph it until now. I used the leftover two seat canopy found in the Italeri 1/48 F-18 to convert a Monogram 1/48 F-18 into a two seater. It is sad that Monogram [...]

Tamiya, 1:48 scale F4F-4 "Wildcat"

by Frederick J Seitz III on April 2, 2017 · in Uncategorized · 19 ≡

Another kit I finished this weekend... I'm sure we all have built this model at one time or another, maybe even more than once as in my case. So, I will not go through the kit details, but suffice to say, it's a Tamiya kit, and it builds [...]
