Look! Up in the air! Is it a bird? A plane? A flying pig? Trumpeter 1/72 Gannet
TC does indeed build in eensy-weensy scale, just not that often. This is the Trumpeter 1/72 Gannet with the A2Zee wingfold and bomb bay sets, with Xtradecals. Sadly, about a week after it was completed, one of the new kittens was [...]
Academy 1/72 P-51B…
...this one doesn't really help the USAF against the Messerschmitts but it is still a Mustang 🙂 ! Academy kit with Cutting Edge decals. Metal finish was Vallejo (!), a bit fragile but still the best I have managed yet! I'll see if I can [...]
Review: Eduard 1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 110E video review
(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
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
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
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
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
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!
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
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 [...]
