President Eisenhower’s “Columbine III” Heller 1/72 Super Connie

by Tom Cleaver on December 22, 2012 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

I personally don't think there was a more beautiful airliner ever made than the Constellation, and I like the Super Constellation with its long lean look to be the best of the bunch. Doing it in simple natural metal, as President [...]

1/72 LVG C.V

by John Healy on December 22, 2012 · in Aviation · 4 ≡

This is a Sierra Scale vacuform kit from around 1988. These were outstandingly crisp vac kits that were the only game in town for many WW1 types years ago. Sierra Scale kits build superbly. I painted it with Humbrol enamels and used [...]

by John Healy on December 22, 2012 · in Aviation

This is the Meikraft kit that appeared around 1989. I eagerly awaited this one to be released! It is a first generation limited run injection molded kit that still holds up well in my opinion. I used modified Berthold markings from a [...]

Supermarine Spitfire Mk1 'LO-B, 602Sqn, 1940 (Tamiya 1:72)

by Charles Whall on December 19, 2012 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

As beautiful as the Spitfire is when its all 'buttoned up', I wanted to depict one stripped down as if in maintenence. This was a real challenge in such a small scale but I think it worked. The base is hand-made from Beech and I used [...]

Roden 1/72 Pfalz D.IIIa

by Korolev Vlad on December 19, 2012 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

The basic modifications affected the cabin. It was also the location of fixed horizontal stabilizer. Color options of Roden was not I, too hackneyed, so that's found a striped version.

No real reason why I built this kit. I build very few whirly-birds, but this one just appealed to me. It is kinda cute. All of the high-vis is Testors Flourescent Red, out of the little square bottle we all know and love. Other than [...]
