Accurate Miniatures' model kits

Buddy building the Accurate Miniatures 24th scale McClaren

I was so impressed with the amount of detail this kit provided that I had to share my discovery with my model buddy Mark Box. The more I raved about it, the more interested Mark became, so we decided to each build one so we could share the [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 P-51D Mustang

In one of my earlier posts I'd mentioned I had build several Accurate Miniatures, Eduard, Airfix, Monogram/Revell, and Tamiya P-51's but not a Hasegawa kit. That is until now and it is a decent kit IMHO. The cockpit is adequate but not [...]

Trumpeter 1/32 TBF-1C Avenger

Avengers flying in the Atlantic Ocean were usually camouflaged in the white and grey that creates a good contrast on models. This Atlantic Avenger was built using the excellent kit by Trumpeter. It is a design enlargement of the great [...]

Review: Halberd Models 1/48 P-51C racer "Beguine"

The “Beguine” Racer: William Paul (“Bill”) Odom, flew for the Chinese National Aviation Corporation (CNAC) from 1944 to 1945, flying “The Hump.” He was determined to make a name for himself in postwar aviation. He did so in [...]

1/48 Accurate Miniatures P-51C

Started in 23 but finally finished is my first completion in 2024. It is the old A/M P-51C kit which is a P-51B with the tail fillet joint. For some reason I seem to be concentrating on checker tail birds especially those from the 325th [...]

Bunker Hill TBM-3 Avenger

This is the second of two kits I bought at an old-fashioned hobby shop in Staunton, VA (the first was an Academy SDB-1 Dauntless). If you’re in the area, I highly recommend stopping by and looking at their stock. The shop is in downtown [...]

Accurate Miniatures 1/48 F3F-2

In its short debut in the modelling world, Accurate Miniatures left a lasing mark in terms of well designed model aircraft. One of these is the F3F-2 biplane. A fond build and a shining gem in the display area.

1/48 Hobbycraft P-40F

It's been awhile since I've posted here, life sometimes gets in the way, so here's my 24th P-40 to add to my collection. Although it's a Hobbycraft kit they use the old AMT molds for their rendition of a P-40F. Since I've build several AMT [...]

A parrot out of hell: Academy 1/48 B 25D

Here is the historic background to the model by Tom Cleaver: Red Wrath was the personal mount of Lt. Colonel Clinton "Fearless" True, Group Commander of the 345th BG. Aircrew viewed him as "hard," but someone who never [...]

Flight 19 TBM-3

Hi all, Had these photos ready for quite some time, but never seemed to have a moment to post this past summer. Hurricane Lee has provided me two days (while I have power and internet) to finally post this. I have FINALLY built my 1/48 [...]
