1/48 Focke Wulf FW190

by Joe Caputo on May 20, 2014 · in Aviation · 27 ≡

You guys were having so much fun kicking the "109" around, that I thought I'd post a "190" for you to play with. Instead of comparing brand names, I mean to let you guess the manufacturer according to the usual [...]

1:48 GWH Focke Wulf Fw 189 A-2

by Milan D. on May 20, 2014 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

Hi to all, this is my first post here, so be gentle 🙂 This build was done 2 years ago, mainly OOB with some scratchbuilding. In that period I was experimenting with using acrylic colors for wash, I was not satisfied with final effect at [...]

1/48 Revell F-14 Tomcat

by Billy Smith on May 19, 2014 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Well well well.. I finally did my first jet. I started this jet back in December but I lost interest and put it up for a while. I finally got sick of seeing it lying around so I finished it. I thought it came out decent for my first ever [...]

Hasegawa’s Hurricane IIc in 1/48 scale by Tony Prince.

by Tony Prince on May 17, 2014 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

A very nice model kit; the second one I've built of Hasegawa's. Straight out of the box except for the canopy. The RAF in the CBI theatre seems to be largely forgotten & had to soldier on with outdated equipment long after more modern [...]

Review: The (not so) “Great 109Gate” Brew-Ha-Ha

by Tom Cleaver on May 16, 2014 · in Reviews · 70 ≡

As with most Brew-Ha-ha's (that's an alcohol-fueled argument anyone outside of it will laugh at) at Hyperscale, the Great 109Gate Whine is mostly "overscale" in the amount of hot air expended by people who don't know what they're [...]

UFO's--Serious Business!

by Mike Maynard on May 16, 2014 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

At least they were to a young modeler in 1958. The Lindberg "Flying Saucer" was a big deal to me and was my first model I was allowed to build all by myself. Like many kids of the 1950's, I was a big fan of space [...]

1/48 Avia S.199 conversion

by Tom Cleaver on May 16, 2014 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

Today is May 15, the 66th anniversary of commencement of the Israeli War of Independence. In honor of that date... The Egyptian Army thought they would smash Israel in a matter of weeks following the outbreak of war after the May 14,1948 [...]

My 1/48 "Jug"

by Ralph Clements on May 15, 2014 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Here's my version of the Revell (Monogram to my old way of thinking...) P-47D 'Razorback'. I tried to model it after the one you see on the book in some of the photos. The book is a 1989 Squadron/Signal Publication titled "49th [...]

DH Vampire Mk9 – Build Completed

by Richard Hanson on May 15, 2014 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

After my ever first post, with the positive comments I received, I was encouraged to crack on with the Vampire as and when spare time allowed. I always like to learn lessons, new techniques and improve on every build, and with this one I [...]

1/48th RF-101C Conversion

by Jim Sullivan on May 14, 2014 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

This RF-101C Voodoo was originally built several years ago. It got damaged a while back when I dropped another model on it while re-arranging my model shelves. The horizontal tails, one of the dive brake doors and one of the flaps were [...]
