1/72 Pfalz D.IIIa

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.

Italeri 1/72 RCN H04S-3

by George Tufnail on December 17, 2012 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

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 [...]

Monogram 1/72 F-11c Hawk

by Merrill Anderson on December 16, 2012 · in Aviation · 2 ≡

I got this kit at a club auction, in a plastic baggie, with instructions, but sans decals. I built it out of nostalgia for old kits, built when I was younger, but with an adult 'eye'. I replaced the missing decals with a borrowed 1/48 kit [...]

Airfix New tooled Spitfire XIX

by Stephen W Towle on December 15, 2012 · in Aviation · 3 ≡

What I love about these new tooled Airfix kits are the simplicity and directness of the design of models. This one was built OOB. The decals work reasonably well given the price paid for the kit and are way better than some more of the [...]

U-96 "Das Boot"

by Bill Weckel on December 14, 2012 · in Ships · 7 ≡

This is the fourth model I built, and after doing three aircraft, I was in the mood to do a warship. The big Revel 1/72 scale U-boat kit was fairly new at the time, and I was eager to see what I could do with it. The kit is absolutely [...]
