Hasegawa 1/72 Stealth Fighter
Work on what would become the F-117 commenced in the 1970s as a means of countering increasingly sophisticated Soviet surface-to-air missiles (SAMs). During 1976, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) issued Lockheed with a [...]
AMX Mk. 61 105mm Self Propelled Howitzer (1/72)
Just a few days before he underwent major heart surgery my father in law told me about his military service. During that time he was trained to drive an “AMX-tank”, but this being more than 50 years ago, unfortunately he didn’t [...]
1/72 Mosquito PR. XVI.
This is the recent Airfix kit built with Barracuda 3D printed landing gear. It’s an amazing addition to an already solid kit. I also used Kits World seatbelts and Eduard masks for the glass. Precut masks are a lifesaver on 1/72 kits [...]
Nakajima B5N2 “Kate”
I finally got the last of my three 1941 IJN aircraft across the finish line today. I built a 1989 boxing of Hasegawa's Kate as Cdr Fuchida's aircraft at Pearl Harbor, AI-301, piloted by Lt. Mitsuo Matsuzaki. Fuchida led Akagi's high [...]
Review: 1/72 Special Hobby, Fairey Barracuda Mk. III "ASV Mk.XI Radar"
This is the Special Hobby, Fairey Barracuda Mk. III with ASV Mk.XI radar. The kit includes four different, post WWII sets of markings, including a French Navy variant, painted in overall dark sea blue. I did not like the included [...]
Review: 1/72 Sword Fairey Gannet AEW.3
I like 1960's Fleet Air Arm (FAA) aircraft and inspired by the amazing painting on the box art, I purchased Sword's Fairey Gannet AEW.3, in 1/72 scale. I chose the second set of markings, included in the kit, depicting aircraft XP224 of [...]
Bristol Blenheim Mk.I Airfix 1/72. Malaya 1941.
(link)
Hello. Today's story is about the Bristol Blenheim. It is a very iconic machine from the beginning of the war. Especially in the Mk.I version. This medium bomber built according to the specification 1000/1000/200 (Carry a load of [...]
CMK 1/72 Sukhoi Su-5
This is my first resin kit build that was built a little over 3 years ago. The kit is an old one from the 70's probably one of the early releases from CMK (Czech Master's Kits). It has fine recessed panel lines, decent details in the [...]
1/72 Me-410 Hornisse, Frog F178
One of those planes that looked like a winner and didn’t quite pan out that way, I always considered the Me-410 looked like a mean machine. It did do considerable damage once the Me-210/410 design was finalized, but the history books do [...]
1/72 Fiat CR.42 Falco, VINTAGE Revell H-648
Another inspiration while reading R.S.Tucks biography, 'Fly for your Life', I did not know that the Regia Aeronautica sent aircraft to participate in the Battle of Britain. One learned fact the book does report was that the Fiat C.R.42 [...]
