Video: Special Hobby, SG-38 Flight Trainer, 1:48 – Stopmotion

by iModeler Youtube Picks on August 11, 2016 · in Aviation

I would like to show you my recent stop motion clip of the very beautiful Special Hobby kit of the SG-38 Flight Trainer in 1/48. It's my first Special Hobby kit and I like the very detailed part and the stable plastic quality. Nothing [...]

Aussie Eight

by Scott Nelson on August 8, 2016 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

When I saw the Eduard Spitfire Mk. IX my friend Dennis Meyers was in the process of making some months ago (which you can find here on iModeler), I knew I had to pull my Mk. VIII off the shelf and get started. Here is the result: the [...]

by Jim Sullivan on August 7, 2016 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

I Just finished this 1/48th Hasegawa F4U-5 in the markings of VF-41 as seen aboard USS Midway during a Med cruise in 1950. The model is finished in Model Master glossy sea blue over-sprayed with Testors clear gloss. The decals were dug out [...]

by Ralph Clements on August 7, 2016 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Here's my just finished Stearman PT-17, a 1/48 scale Revell kit I built 'out of the box'. It is the smallest model I've built. the kit goes together real well, maybe it should be part of Revell's "Pro-Modeller' series. Maybe if they [...]

by Tom Cleaver on August 7, 2016 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

I recently picked up the limited-release "P-51D 8th AF Aces" kit from an estate sale at the LHS. I hadn't picked this up when first released because I wasn't sure I wanted to do anything with the kit decals. As it turned out, [...]

Eduard Mk.9e Spitfire 1/48 Royal Egyptian Airforce

by neil foster on August 7, 2016 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

This is the Eduard kit and to be honest I found it a bit of a pain in the arse to build, the wing to fuselage fit was dreadful requiring the removal of about 1mm of plastic on each side ,the kit generally was what I would call pointlessly [...]

I bought this kit at a club day because I liked the artwork on the box,it shows the Seafang in typical postwar FAA colours, extra dark sea grey over sky and black and yellow Suez conflict stripes to put a cherry on the cake,but no... it [...]

Revell/Monogram 1/48 P-47D Thunderbolt

by Tom Bebout on August 5, 2016 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

I seem to be stuck on building old Revell and Monogram kits of late. Here's my latest effort at trying to build an old uncomplicated kit so that it looks well. Copyright on the box is 1998 and it appears it's been recently re-released by [...]

Modeling Madness re-published this article from 13 years ago, and I thought you might like to see it with all the photos I took that were not used there. THE FLYING TIGERS In the sixty years since the Second World War, the American [...]
