Eduard Bf 109F-2 and Bf 109F-4
The Eduard 1/72 scale Messerschmitts are the new kids on the block, and the new release comes with lots of bells and whistles in the form of two PE frets, Kabuki tape masks, and a generous (and interesting) decal sheet. Surprisingly, the [...]
Finally successful: Juno I/Explorer I, the first US satellite in orbit!
Pictures tell stories. This also applies to prestigious high-end aerospace products. The iconic images of the Juno launch vehicle and its Explorer satellite can serve as a good example. I would therefore like to begin this article with a [...]
Jo-Han 1/72 P-47D Thunderbolt
Jo-Han 1/72 P-47D Thunderbolt
Kit no. A-102 (Released: 1973 New tool)
This was my second time building this kit and I enjoyed the build when I first built it back in 1973 and enjoyed it more on this build. It is a clean kit with very [...]
Martin B26 Marauder - Hrubisko series – 1/72 scale
Hi,
This is the final list for the Martin B26 Marauder series.
To be honest, for being a big model and the complexity of some versions (especially the Mk I) 12 models is quite a good number.

Jump! (DHC-2 Beaver diorama)

AirFix 1:72 scale model that went together well. The Spitfire gained immortality during the Battle of Britain in the summer and into the fall of 1940. The main role was to intercept and destroy the Luftwaffe’s fighters while the [...]
1/72 Mach 2 RB-57F with DB Productions Resin Cowl, Nose and P&W T33 Turbo Jets
I am a fan of cold war reconnaissance aircraft and so, like some folks out there, I had the Mach 2 RB-57 kit just sitting on the shelf. I had read the reviews and new the kit's plastic was less than optimal and so it just sat there, for [...]
Arma Hobby 1/72 P51 B/C Mustang
This is the best kit I've ever put together, without a doubt. Beautifully engineered and produced, zero flash and no problems with any of the fit, apart from the front of the cockpit glazing being maybe half a millimetre too narrow to fit [...]
Tempest Mk. V: Airfix 1/72
This is my interpretation of Wing Commander ‘Bee’ Beamont’s Tempest Mk. V, a plane he test-piloted for Hawker before flying it into combat with incredible skill, flipping V-1s amongst other acts of unbelievable daring. I hope he [...]
FFA P-16
The first aircraft had its maiden flight in 1955. The aircraft had a Wing design that was revolutionary for the time, with a thin Profile and an unusual combination of high-lift devices such as flaps on the Wing trailing edge, lowerable [...]
