1/48 Revell PT-17 Stearman

by James Kelley on May 29, 2014 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

Here's the iModeler Review kit from a few weeks ago... 🙂 A fun little kit that goes together very well. No putty needed, this is perhaps Revell's best-fitting kit. The kit's rigging diagram was helpful, but could've been a little [...]

1/48 Trumpeter Sea Fury

by Geoffrey Abreu on May 25, 2014 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

This is a 1/48 Trumpy Sea Fury that I built a few years ago. I understand that the kit has some issues but what the hell, I built it anyways. Markings were some excellent ones from Mike Grant, possibly the best decals I have ever used. [...]

Yossarian: “Is Orr crazy?” Doc Daneeka: “Of course he is. He has to be crazy to keep flying after all the close calls he's had.” Yossarian: “Why can't you ground him?” Doc Daneeka: “I can, but first he has to ask [...]

by John Healy on May 22, 2014 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

I just took a few better pics and posted them. Again, it's a great kit straight from the box. I painted it with Humbrol enamels including my last tins of Humbrol Authentics Slate Grey and Extra Dark Sea Grey. I must have had these tins [...]

This kit was test field for my second riveting attempt. I was pretty satisfied with results. This build is from the period when I was afraid to weather the model because I was scared that I will ruin it all with it. So it end up pretty [...]
