Bristol Beaufighter MK VI

by Frank Cronin on July 27, 2013 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

This model represents an Beaufighter from 30 Squadron, RAAF. I have no further info on it except that the person I built it for was on the same island base in the Pacific where this group was. He was with the USA on OY-10's. He passed away [...]

Tamiya, 1:48 Scale Bristol Beaufighter Mk-VI

by Frederick J Seitz III on July 27, 2013 · in Uncategorized · 8 ≡

Another great kit by Tamiya, so what else can I say. Fit was spot on and other than the need of some extra detail in the respective cockpits, the kit is awesome. I only say that because for some it's not enough. Others, (Like me) will [...]

Hasegawa, 1:48 Scale, Kawanishi N1K1-Ja, ‘Shinden’ (George)

by Frederick J Seitz III on July 27, 2013 · in Uncategorized · 7 ≡

Hey Folks, I've been away for a bit, but still building. Thought I'd post a few pictures of one of my latest builds. Loved the kit and it went together very well. A minimum of fit issues and the detail was nicely done without that [...]

by Frank Cronin on July 26, 2013 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

F4D-1's of VF-141 "Iron Angels" were aboard USS Bon Homme Richard CVA-31 during the time I was aboard in 1957-58. They came aboard in June for a West Pac cruise. This was the first deployment of a West coast squadron equipped [...]

by Tom Cleaver on July 26, 2013 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

This is the Accurate Miniatures gem - I was so happy when they finally released a good model of my favorite Grumman fighter. The model is done OOB with kit decals, to depict F3F-2 BuNo 0976, flown by 1st Lt. Bob Galer of VMF-2. On August [...]

1/48 Pegasus EZ Build FW-190

by Joe Caputo on July 26, 2013 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

This started life as a club project, where everyone was to build a 1/48 Pegasus EZ Build kit, a snap-tite, any way we wanted to. This done in authentic Kreigsmarine A/C colors, with the obvious float added. Lots of fun, and some [...]

by FRED MATAS on July 25, 2013 · in Aviation · 1 ≡

This the engine I'm working on for my current project. I am really impressed with Zvezda's quality! I will post more pics as the project moves along.

This is the Hasegawa F4U-7, as flown by 15 Flotille from Arromanches at the Suez intervention, decals from MDC. 40 years ago, I helped restore BuNo 133722, the last F4U-7 in existence and the last Corsair built still in existence, ten more [...]

HobbyBoss F-105D Thunderchief (1/48th)

by Marvin Reyes on July 25, 2013 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Here's the HobbyBoss F-105D in 48th. The kit has way too many parts, that make construction difficult, especially the wings. The seperate spoilers on the upper wing are a pain and it's a pain to get the spoilers to lay flat. The same goes [...]
