by Joe Caputo on March 25, 2014 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

Pegasus 1/48 E-Z Snapz P-51B (Tuskeegee) is the kit, to which was added Eagle Strike Checkertail Clan decals. I was watching "Checkertails Parts 1 & 2- a Documentary by Neil "Mysticpuma" Pugh, on YouTube. It was a very [...]

D-Day Group build: 1/48 Monogram Hawker Typhoon IB

by Tom Cleaver on March 23, 2014 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

The Monogram Typhoon is copyrighted 1967, though I don't remember seeing it before 1969. Whatever. It's old. Supposedly been completely replaced by the Hasegawa kits in 2000-2001. They go for US$45.00 or so. This goes for $16, and the [...]

Sd.Kfz.232 (Tamiya 1/48)

by Dmitry Stropalov on March 22, 2014 · in Armor · 9 ≡

There is not so much to say about this model. Kit is easy to assemble and it was a really pleasure to work on it after short run kits. I wanted to try some of the weathering techniques - different filter colors, oils, pigments, etc. It's [...]

AMT’s 1/48 F7F-3N Tigercat

by Josh Patterson on March 22, 2014 · in Aviation · 27 ≡

Well, not only do I love vintage jets, but I'm also a s****r for anything with a round engine! (Hearing EAA's B-17 flying around yesterday got me thinking about it again!)I think the Tigercat ranks among the best looking of them all! [...]

Another Lightning Strike! (92 Sq F.1A)

by Josh Patterson on March 21, 2014 · in Aviation · 31 ≡

Seems like a lot of lightnings have been showing up lately, so I thought I'd show my 92 Sq. F.1A as well. (I like the early Lightnings before they added chord to the fin and squared it off!) I built it when the kit was new, so it's about [...]

Mig 21F-13 A Six Day War Survivor

by Mark Housley on March 20, 2014 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

Hi All, This build is from quite some time ago and its one of my rare jaunts over to 1/48 its the Trumpeter kit and it is a really nice bit of plastic to say the least, detail is top notch, the cockpit in my opinion doesn't need anything [...]

Hi All, Here is my little survivor its been to nearly all last seasons Model Shows and its had various bits glued back on at some point including the tail section a good few times one wing and the undercarriage hence the slightly wonky [...]

AFV Club 1:48 F-5F

by Emeterio de la Iglesia Blanco on March 16, 2014 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

Hello everybody! This is the F-5F, in my opinion, one of the most graceful aircrafts. This particular model was finished some time ago and went on without problems. It is outside of the box except for the scratch made harnesses and [...]

1/48 Pfalz D.IIIa, SPAD XIII, and Albatros D.Va.

by John Healy on March 16, 2014 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

A few more older builds I was e-mailing this morning that I thought I'd share. The Pfalz and Albatros are Eduard kits. They were painted with Humbrol enamels, except for the mauve on the Albatros' wings. I used ModelMaster Napoleanic [...]

1/48 Tamiya F4U-1

by John Healy on March 16, 2014 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

I was e-mailing these pics to a friend who just purchased the kit and thought I'd share them here as well. I built this one way back when it came out. Aeromaster enamel paints and Superscale decals finished her up. Not much else to [...]
