Eduard 1/48 Tempest V

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on May 7, 2023 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

Although not Eduard's finest model, it is still the best model in the market. Quite a few areas require filling the seams and re-scribing the fine panel lines. Nonetheless, the model is well detailed and captures the characteristic Hawker [...]

ICM 1/48th Scale P-51B

by Bruce Archer on May 6, 2023 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

Hi All! One may hazard a guess from the Mig-3 and Yak-9 I built from ICM, that all of their kits are, well (I'll be nice) not up to modern standards. That is not true. ICM's twin-stage Merlin Spitfire series was the best on the market [...]

1/48 Monogram Do335 Arrow

by Tom Bebout on May 6, 2023 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

Once in awhile I need to build something other than a P-40 and in a short amount of time. This old Monogram kit fit the bill for me. The printed instructions carry a 1974 Copyright so it's old by any standard. Officially called the Arrow, [...]

Focke Wulf Fw-190D-9 (Tamiya 1/48)

by Christopher Church on May 4, 2023 · in Aviation · 22 ≡

Granted this older Tamiya kit has some issues, but it still makes an attractive build. This also presented an opportunity to practice airbrushing camo and mottle free-hand while trying to avoid a major mishap. Kit decals were unusable so [...]

Interesting national insignia on Marine Corsairs

by Rob Anderson on May 4, 2023 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

So as I work on my Richard Petty '73 Charger (more on that later!) I am researching my next build, Tamiya 1/48 F4U-1A Corsair. I figured I'd do a Marine bird, so I started looking at pictures and stumbled across some birds with no [...]

Kinetic 1/48 IA 58 Pucara

by Rafi Ben-Shahar on May 4, 2023 · in Aviation · 28 ≡

A gem from Kinetic. The kit has good fit of parts and fine details that in turn, invite a delicate weathering practice.

IJN 6th Air Corps Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero Hasegawa 1/48

by Marcus Vinicius Teixeira Borges on May 4, 2023 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

Hi folks, this was an old building,overall gray,so I decided to bring it back to the bench and camouflage it as flown during the Solomons Is. Campaign...different gray underneath,and green above... As to better camouflage them in the [...]

35 - 1/48 Italeri EA-6B Prowler

by Anthony Ricco on May 3, 2023 · in Aviation · 52 ≡

Wow what an amazing Kit. I absolutely loved this and the camo desert scheme. The kit went together great - the only part that needed a bit of work was the underbelly. Stated like most kits with the Cockpit and if you have the chance to get [...]

Yellow Wings...1/48 Grumman F3F-1, VMF-2, USMC

by Reinhard Spreitzhofer on May 3, 2023 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

My dad´s next biplane, the first of some upcoming yellow wing subjects. Accurate Miniatures kit, accidentally decals for their -2 kit were packed in the box, so my dad decided to use them and do a Marines bird, all the numbers were [...]

A5M Claudes

by Chas Bunch on May 2, 2023 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

I only had one A5M Claude in my Japanese collection, (A5M4-K by Classic Airframes), so recently I built 2 Claudes from Wingsy Kits. This was my first experience with Wingsy Kits, and they are exceptional, a real pleasure to build. One [...]
