Tamiya 1/48 F4D-1 Skyray

by Tom Cleaver on July 18, 2016 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

It's hard to believe this kit has now been out for 18 years. The Douglas F4D-1 Skyray was the first Navy fighter capable of that could exceed Mach 1 in level flight. It was the first carrier-based fighter to hold the world's absolute [...]

Tamiya 1/48th P-47D Razorback

by Frank Steffens on July 15, 2016 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

I built this kit over the past month and a half, and I was amazed at the excellent fit and detail right out of the box. I added Eduard photoetch details to the cockpit, brake lines to the main gear and the wiring harness to the engine, but [...]

1/48 Pro-Modeler P-40E Warhawk.

by Tom Bebout on July 15, 2016 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

I believe this kit was a re-pop of a Hasagawa kit, but I could be wrong. Started some time ago but lost interest so it sat for six months. Finally finished her and is another three foot model added to my collection of P-40's. Not a bad [...]

AH.7 Lynx, Afghanistan 2006

by Ramon R. Lomeli on July 12, 2016 · in Aviation · 35 ≡

Long time no speak, iModeler! Here is a Lynx gifted to me by my wife's grandmother Mary, who we all called Nan. She was a very special lady, veteran of ww2 WAAF, and tough as nails. I only wish she got to see this sooner...

T-38C Talon in 1/48 Scale by Trumpeter

by George Tufnail on July 10, 2016 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

I built this one just because I could. Totally out of the box, with paint by Testors Model Master enamels, washes by AK Interactives, and decals from the box that fought me tooth and nail. Even the photo-etch seatbelts were less trouble [...]
