Academy 1/48th Bf 109 T2 – TragerJager

by Kits And Bits Scale Modelling on May 1, 2022 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

The T2 was the 109 designed to fly from the decks of the Graf Zepplin. The T2 was a variant of of the E3/4 but with a longer wingspan, to aid taking off from the shorter deck. Although the T2 was never used from the deck of a carrier, [...]

Tamiya P-38F MTO, USAAF 1/48th Tunisia 1943

by Chuck A. Villanueva on March 6, 2022 · in Aviation · 23 ≡

To say that the Tamiya P-38 was a joy to build is an understatement. Having built the Academy and Hasegawa Lightning's which are good models of the P-38, just that Tamiya had really taken a rather complicated twin boom air frame and made [...]

Academy 1/72 IL-2 Stormovik

by David Adams on March 1, 2022 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

Finished this Xmas present that my daughter gave me. Academy 1/72nd aircraft kits are good quality (IMHO) but this kit maybe just a little over-engineered. The cockpit assembly is nicely detailed but I almost broke it trying to fit it [...]

by Derek Bowen on February 15, 2022 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

This Vindicator represents one of the USMC planes stationed at Midway Island that participated in the Battle of Midway. The white "stripes" are medical tape the crews used to patch the canvas exterior and the grey lines around [...]

Academy Battle of the Planets (Gatchaman) Phoenix

by Chris Wallace on February 6, 2022 · in Sci-fi · 5 ≡

This is definitely a side project because I don't often venture into non-aircraft builds. However, I had a blast building this Phoenix. This truly is a modern kit with up-to-date engineering. I was very impressed with the engineering of [...]

Who's tired of C-Rations?

by Mark P Hartig on January 11, 2022 · in Armor · 11 ≡

This dates from late 2013, an idea that came to me out of the blue one day The Academy 1/35 M-18 used, it gave me a decent base and assembled well. It was upgraded with a Verlinden interior set and ModelKasten workable tracks. The interior [...]

Academy /48 Mig 21SM

by Dan DeSilva on January 11, 2022 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

As I am not a Mig 21 expert, I will not say that all of what I did on this build, was absolutely correct. I based the markings on a profile (eek) of Mig 21s in Afghanistan in the 80's. I found a KMC Mig21 MF resin cockpit during one of my [...]

Academy AH-6J & Live Resin SOF Helicopter Assault Team 1/35

by Dennis Meyers on December 30, 2021 · in Figures · 19 ≡

This long term project began when I saw a pre-release article on this Live Resin 6-figure set. I'd built a fantastic Live Resin figure a few years earlier so I was confident that they would be great figures. I had also been wanting to [...]

by Spiros Pendedekas on November 23, 2021 · in Aviation · 35 ≡

Hi everyone! This is my Academy 1/48 F-16C Falcon, finished as an early 90s HAF bird, wearing the beautiful Aegean Ghost scheme! The Lockheed Martin F-16 Fighting Falcon is a single-engine multirole fighter, originally developed by General [...]
