Review: Eduard 1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 110E video review

by Editor on January 23, 2013 · in Reviews · 1 ≡

(link) Here's a video in-box review of one of the potential awards in this month's iModeler contest, the excellent 1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 110 by Eduard. The type series was opened by the E version (subject of the shown Profipack boxing) [...]

1/72 Fine Molds Bf-109F-2

by Magnus Fridsell on January 23, 2013 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

I'm in as well! This is the Fine Molds Bf-109F-2 in the colours of 206-victory ace Hans Philipp from JG 54. A very nice kit that builds easily! Decals are from the old Aeromaster "Luftwaffe Top Guns"-sheet of 1990s vintage. Paint [...]

109 G-14 A/S Hasegawa 1/72

by Merrill Anderson on January 22, 2013 · in Aviation

Keeping with the 109 flurry, here's my very old 'one of a kind' model. It's the Hasegawa 109 G-14, but modified to the last variant, the A/S (asymetrical) with the DB 605 engine. The changed cowling bulge was sculpted out of epoxy putty. [...]

Tamiya 1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-3

by Editor on January 22, 2013 · in Aviation · 3 ≡

Having admired some hundreds of spectacular models here at iModeler, I feel compelled to provide some sort of evidence that Yours Truly also builds some models on his own -- well at least occasionally. This is Tamiya’s Messerschmitt Bf [...]

1:72 English Electric Lightning F.2A

by Bill Gilman on January 17, 2013 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

A long time ago in a galaxy far away, I had the idea of building the 1:72 Trumpeter Lightning F.2A kit. It looked great in the box, so it should be a nice quick little build, eh? Those of you who are familiar with that kit and its foils [...]

Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I 1:72

by Jan Baranec on January 7, 2013 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Hi Guys I want to share my supermarime Spitfire Mk.I from tamiya kit. I cooperated it with aires detail set (open engine, gun bays, cockpit) and photoetched parts by eduard (flaps). I also made a lot of details myself (rivets,etc.) I [...]

Summing up 2012!

by Magnus Fridsell on December 29, 2012 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

Not a very good year modelling-wise with only three kits finished. The fact that two of them are very small doesn't make it more impressive either! So here we go, two MiG-21s from Eduard in 1/144 scale. One Slovak one in the [...]

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 [...]

1/72 SSW D.III

by John Healy on December 22, 2012 · in Aviation · 2 ≡

This is a Pegasus limited run kit from the late '80s. It's still one of my favorite models. I scratchbuilt my first cockpit using the Windsock Datafile as a reference on this one I used kit markings, Superscale lozenge, brass wire [...]
