1/48 F-16F Block 60
Hey Guys,
a bit about myself first, i am a 16 year old from Australia and have been model building aircraft for 2 years now,
this is my latest build ! Hasegawa's 1/48 F-16F Block 60,
the kit fits together pretty much perfect, quality [...]
Revell 1/48 F/A -18 Hornet
This is the old Revell kit, from 1990. I built it several years ago, and recently got around to photographing her at the airport. I did use an aftermarket decal set, the SuperScaleInternational set 48-346. It's pretty much built OOB, [...]
Special Hobby Reggiane 2002
Another 1/48 offering with an interesting history if you're into the obscure and obsolete. Not bad to build, an improvement over some of their other kits. Not as interesting as some of the other Italian camo schemes, but it grew on me. [...]
Kitbashed Nunguesser’s Nieuport 25
I made this a while back, but although not as good as some of my work, I was proud of this effort. It started with a friend giving me a 1/48 resin fuselage for a late model Nieuport, from some forgotten maker. It was two halves, with only [...]
1/48th Tamiya Me-262
After seeing Grega X post on his beautiful Me 262 I thought I would put my effort up here also. I have to agree, this kit is awesome, I have built the Monogram and Dragon Me 262 in 48th scale and this one is better on all levels.
I [...]
Special Hobby Bristol Blenheim Mk.1
1/48 , and an interesting aircraft, and usual "interpretive" build, as one needs to get the parts to somehow hold hands long enough for the glue to set. Built several years ago, sans gloss coat, panel lines or weathering. [...]
Hasagawa 1/48 Canadair Sabre Mk5 "Frecce Tricolori" with a twist
So what do you do when you get two really cool sets of markings and only one model? Split the schemes! Blue side is 1963, and the black side is 1961. I painted the tricolour lower wing, but all the other markings are from the kit decal [...]
1/48 Tamiya Me-262 Schwalbe
Still probably the best kit of this bird in quarter scale, with Aires detail set. I did suffer a bit of "going into details too much" with this one, but i think the result is more than satisfying.
There aren't any problems [...]
Kyushu J7W3 Shinden Japanese “Jet Ace” 1947
Well, how about another “what if” history project? I hope you don’t mind. This started off as just a regular build of the Hasegawa Kyushu J7W1 Shinden. This aircraft had long fascinated me, with it’s unorthodox canard design and [...]
1/48 Classic Airframes Fokker DXXI
This is Classic Airframes earlier release of the Fokker DXXI. I understand that they have released a later kit that is easier to build. This kit is the usual multi-media kit with p-e and resin parts in addition to the injection-molded [...]
