by Chuck A. Villanueva on January 15, 2017 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

First completed model for the new year. Tamiya's D-9 is an excellent kit. Straight forward build. Added just Eduard's cockpit zoom set and Eagle Strike Decals for the scheme of RLM 82/83/76. Really like this late camo scheme the [...]

by Robert Royes on January 13, 2017 · in Armor · 11 ≡

Another attempt at armor, this I've had around I don't know for how long. It's Aurora's last issue[1976] of the M109, where they added the long gun option, I added rudimentary recoil spades in the rear, the kit provided one massive unit [...]

Desert Warhawk – Curtiss P-40K in Tunisia 1943

by Miha Kosi on January 10, 2017 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Yes, I am terribly fond of desert dioramas. They are so colorful. And I have always been especially intrigued by "pink" Warhawks in North Africa. What an unusual color, and a great challenge for a modeler. I was helped a lot by [...]

by Martin Dytrych on January 10, 2017 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

Hi, Double Ugly is finished, looking very impresive but not ugly at all! The kit is well known, I personaly was just a little bit disappointed with few missing instructions and not very good described painting of included weapon (and [...]

Here's one for your enjoyment that's hot on the heels of my XP-51. Tonight's "Pre War" themed article is about the ancient Testors kit that I finished early last year. It was the first plane that I completed in 2016. I'm [...]

Here's a few pictures of my Accurate Miniatures early P-51A Mustang that I built a few years ago. I've always been a big fan of early / pre war colors on both the US Army Air Corps / Army Air Force, and US Navy "Yellow Wings" [...]

Henschel Hs126B-1trop ICM 1/48

by Stan Traas on January 7, 2017 · in Aviation · 32 ≡

Another desert rat. I wouldn't call this kit terrible but it does have it's downsides, worst of which are a somewhat rough surface which lacks a lot of detail, some pretty poor engineering especially where attachment points and smaller [...]

Eduard 1/48 Messerschmitt BF109F-4

by Michael Booth on January 7, 2017 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

As part of a review for SAM, the kit is fantastic as always. Although a re-boxing of the G kit, it is a simple and nice kit to build, with plenty of parts and six marking options in total. Nothing is wrong with the kit, however the masking [...]
