Hasegawa 1/48 AV-8B Harrier II Plus

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on February 23, 2024 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

The Harrier II Plus is not among Hasegawa's finest models. It has fit issues and sparse cockpit. Yet, thanks to the finely engraved panel lines and accurate dimensions it can be build into a descent representation of American development [...]

by Robert D Carley on February 22, 2024 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

Just finished some more items for my 1/48th D-Day display at our local library coming this June. A P-47D-25 kit 61090 and a GMC Fuel Truck kit 32579. Both kits are from Tamiya. Great detail and decals.

Witchcraft, The Enchanted Liberator

by Chas Bunch on February 22, 2024 · in Aviation · 50 ≡

Here’s my build of “Witchcraft”, the enchanted B-24H Liberator of the 467th Bomb Group. The kit is Monogram’s 1:48 B-24J that I picked up at a bargain table for $5.00 at a contest a few years ago. There were no decals, and someone [...]

by Tom Bebout on February 21, 2024 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

Another P-40 from the Bebout Curtiss Factory and this one I like to call Snake on a Plane. I didn't have a Hasegawa P-40K but a did have their P-40E plus a AMTech P-40 with the Black Box resin tail. The Hasegawa P-40 K kit is as scarce as [...]

1/48 Fairey Gannet AS.1/4

by John Healy on February 21, 2024 · in Aviation · 35 ≡

This is the new Airfix kit which I was fortunate to receive as a surprise for Christmas from my wonderful wife. She heard me discussing it with a friend and lamenting that it probably wouldn’t get to the US til mid 2024. She found a [...]

by Milan Tesař on February 19, 2024 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

I present another Oeffag model, this time from the 106 series. The propeller cone started to be removed from these series, due to constant problems with it falling off very often in flight. About the Albatross of the Austro-Hungarian Air [...]

by Roland Sachsenhofer on February 19, 2024 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

The history of the Swedish Air Force is a reflection of the neutral political stance that the great Nordic country developed in the fateful years of the 20th century. In 1905, two years after the first motorised flight had been achieved, [...]

Trumpeter 1/32 Swordfish Mk. I

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on February 19, 2024 · in Aviation · 28 ≡

Trumpeter's Swordfish is a great kit. Not only that it is an enlargement of Tamiya's magnificent 1/48th kit, but also that it is impressive thanks to its large size. The texture surface of the biplane is largely canvas. The texture surface [...]
