Tamiya 1/48 F4U-2

by Dan DeSilva on November 29, 2012 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

I love the Corsair, and I particularly enjoy building Tamiya Corsairs. This was my first folded wing corsair. I used pictures from the Osprey book on Corsair aces (This aircraft was on the USS Enterprise) to help me to paint this one. It [...]

Accurate Miniatures F3F-1

by John Healy on November 29, 2012 · in Uncategorized · 4 ≡

This is my favorite kit of all time. 1/48 scale. I painted this entirely with Tamiya spray cans, except for the red cowl ring. The cowl ring was painted with a Testors lacquer spray can red that was an exact match for the Yellow Wings [...]

Tamiya F4F-4 Wildcat 1/48

by Rickard Malmborg on November 29, 2012 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

The Tamiya Wildcat was a nice kit to build, clever parts breakdown and no fit problem (as with most Tamiya kits); the only extra I put in to it was some details in the cockpit. There was a lot of talk about the floor in this kit (as the [...]

Blast from the past. 1/48 Aurora Gotha GV.

by Eric aka The Yankymodeler on November 28, 2012 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

I thought I'd join in the fun with an oldie from the back of the display case, built 27 years ago. Constructed from an original Aurora 1/48 Gotha G. V kit, the one with the hard brittle red plastic, only the basic airframe parts, [...]

Roden 1/48th Fokker D-VII “Udet”

by Erik Wade Whipple on November 28, 2012 · in Aviation · 1 ≡

This one has Copper State Models Spandaus and Aeromaster lozenge decals. The black and white striping was painted first, then the decals trimmed to fit. Tail chevron from Superscale white decal stock. A fairly straightforward build, but [...]

by David D. on November 28, 2012 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

This is my Tamiya 1/48 Scale F4U-1A corsair painted in the markings of Lt. JG. Danny Cunningham during his first tour with VF-17 flying out of Ondongo Airfield in the South West Pacific. Hope you like it. David.

Eduard 1/48th scale Fokker Dr.1 (including work in progress photo’s)

by Dan Brennan on November 28, 2012 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

This is the Eduard 1/48th scale Fokker Dr.1. Built out of box using the kit decals. Model Master and Xtra Color paints along with Gunsight Graphic decals for the streaked camouflage were used. I included some pictures of the assembly as [...]

Supermarine Spitfire F Mk.24 – 1/48 Eduard, Aires, Falcon,..

by Josef Blažek on November 28, 2012 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Hi everyone ! This is the Airfix kit (reboxed by Eduard) with Aires engine set and cockpit set. I also used Eduard´s flaps and Quickboost´s cannon barrels. The canopy from a kit was too thick and scratched so I replaced it by new one [...]

Eduard 1/48th Nieuport 11 'Bebe' Profipack

by Erik Wade Whipple on November 28, 2012 · in Aviation · 3 ≡

Hello iModelers! I thought I would initiate my participation with some images of my most recent Nieuport build. Great little kit with no serious fit issues, but- as with all Eduard Nieuports I've built- the cockpit benefits from a little [...]
