A6M2 Type 2, Fine Molds 1/72
The raisen Zero!, probably my favourite plane of all times. I have model it in almost every scale and configuration and this time I'm presenting the 1/72 Fine Molds available only with number 276/277 of Model Graphix magazine. I just love [...]
1/72 Tamiya Ilyushin Il-2 Shturmovik
I recently did an in-box review of this kit for iModeler...here is the finished product.
The kit is engineered very well, as one would expect from Tamiya. Interestingly, I found the plastic to be slightly softer than what I am used to [...]
Slingsby T.18 Hengist
Hello
My father, Raul Hrubisko has made two new models in 1/72 scale for our collection. In this case as part of our Glider series.
He made them from scratch in only 16 days.. I would like to thank to Jed and Alastair for helping us with [...]
1/72 Hawk 81
This the Airfix Hawk 81-A-2 that I built straight from the box, with the only modification being to carefully separate the canopy from the windshield. Fitting the canopy over the spine was more than a little difficult so a vacform canopy [...]
Fw190
This is one of the few Axis aircraft I have built. I'm not much of a historian, I just build what's in front of me, so if anyone can fill in the blanks jump in.
It is a 1/72nd Revell of Germany kit.
1/48 General Dynamics F-111A Prototype RTD&E #1
This is the old Monogram, ex-Aurora, F-111A Swing Wing Fighter kit.
I back dated the kit to represent the first RTD&E aircraft. Backdating the aircraft wasn't that hard. The major modification is the fuel dump area in between the two [...]
Martin B-10
Thought I'd make post before leaving for the IPMS Region IV Regionals at Dayton, Oh tomorrow.
The B-10 was the US Army Air Force's first all steel monoplane bomber and went into service in 1934.
This is the Williams Brothers 1/72 kit. Box [...]
Hobby Boss 1/72 HH-60H Rescue Hawk [Late Version]
Recently, I have been working on helicopter kits, but this is my first one in 1/72 scale. I uysed Model Master enamels thinned with lacquer thinner through a Grex airbrush, buffing metalizers on the rotor blades, Future brushed on over [...]
Airfix 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I (Pre-war)
For my first contribution to iModeler.com I present Airfix's nicely retooled 1/72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.I / IIa kit. Since returning to the hobby I've had a few fails and it feels really good to complete something for the display shelf. [...]
Boeing 247 1/72 Williams Brothers
Built basically OOB from the Williams Bothers kit in 1/72. I wanted a different aircraft than the supplied decals so registration markings were pieced together by cutting up the kit decals and the outline of the United States hand painted [...]
