1/72 F6F-5 Hellcat

by Michael Smith on April 22, 2023 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

My attempt to make headway on my stash of unbuilt kits settled on a second 1/72 Academy F6F this week. In 2021 I built this kit as Alex Vraciu's F6F-3 - (link). This time I would build the kit as a F6F-5 in overall Glossy Sea Blue. I [...]

Academy 1/144 RB-47

by Mark P Hartig on April 21, 2023 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

For some time now I've schemed to build a collection of post WW II US bombers but never could find enough space for display. Thwarted for years, I finally discovered Academy's 1/144 scale kits and the problem was solved. These are [...]

by David Kopielski on April 14, 2023 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

This build was the Academy 1/48 P-40N. I will also be using Eduard’s photo etch set to add details. I used the kit decals for the Burma Banshees scheme. This scheme represents 2nd LT. Philip Adair’s P-40N named “Lulu Belle” of the [...]

Academy 1/144 scale B-1

by Carlos Gomez on March 13, 2023 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

This is the excellent Academy B-1 in 1/144 scale. The engineering is top notch and the kit goes together with only minor putty required on the forward fuselage seams. I would love to see this model brought up to 72nd with the same fit and [...]

Academy F4U-1

by Scott Nelson on January 28, 2023 · in Aviation · 8 ≡

I picked up this kit (which included the Fairey FD-2 kit from FROG) at a recent contest for a very reasonable price from a friend running a vendor table. It seems Academy kits can be “hit or miss” in quality. I think this one is good. [...]

New year, new count... Here´s my dad´s first finished model in 2023. Academy edition of the old Hobbycraft kit, markings from Hi-Decal. Had some True Details (Squadron) T-33 resin seats in our stash. Although they are a bit too low for [...]

Fear the Bones. 1/48 Fighters of the Jolly Rogers Squadron

by Matt Minnichsoffer on December 26, 2022 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

One of the most documented Naval fighter squadrons in all of the modeling world, I give you my builds of the vaunted Jolly Rogers. In the history of the "Bones" five squadrons have used either the designation VF-84 or the name [...]
