Tamiya 1/48 F4U-1 Corsair

by Drew Tarter on March 27, 2013 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

Here's my version of Tamiya's 1/48 F4U-1 'birdcage' Corsair, finished in the nondescript markings of a Marine squadron based in the Solomons in 1943. This build was almost straight 'out-of-the-box' - the only things added were seat belts, [...]

Monogram 1/48 TBD Devastator

by Drew Tarter on March 27, 2013 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Here's my Monogram TBD, still a terrific kit despite its age. I added lots of scratch-built details, seat belts and a few photo-etched pieces to dress up the cockpit, a vac-form canopy, and enclosed the wheel wells. The decals from the [...]

by Tom Cleaver on March 26, 2013 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

The Classic Airframes I-153 came out in around 1996, the last of the kits done for them by Eduard, and one of the first Eduard kits to be done in mainstream injection-molded plastic with better molds. The kit was later released by Eduard [...]

Pro-Modeler Fw190D-11 1/48 scale

by Chris Sakowski on March 25, 2013 · in Aviation · 2 ≡

This is the Pro-Modeler Fw190D-11 built straight from the box. I was planning on using a real cool Eagle Strike decal set on this one but its for a D-9 not the D-11 so I used the kit decals. I chickened out on the red bottom scheme so I [...]

I have always liked the Stuka ever since I watched my dad build the Guillows balsa wood kit. So here is mine. This is Hasegawa's Ju87B-2 depicting S2+AM from 4/St.G.77 Eastern Front, 1941..I built this one pretty much straight from the [...]

iModeler Review: Tamiya 1/72 Ilyushin IL-2 Shturmovik

by James Kelley on March 24, 2013 · in Reviews · 3 ≡

A few months ago, Tamiya released what is, most likely, the new standard for 1/48 IL-2 Shturmovik. The kit has thus been lauded for its engineering, beauty, and ease of assembly. There was also, as I remember, a bit of controversy [...]

Fujimi FW-190D-9 “Black 10″

by Gary Brantley on March 24, 2013 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

I bought this old Fujimi 1/48 kit at a model close-out at a Michael's store many years ago. Since I only paid a few dollars for it, when I finally got around to building the plane, 15-20 years ago, I decided to try a bit of customizing. [...]
