1/48 Arma Airacobra P-39N
Definitely not the easiest model to put together but despite the time needed to fix them, the build issues are manageable. I had a lot of fun painting this one. All the markings are painted except the tail numbers because I could not get [...]
Eduard 1/48 P-39N Airacobra
The model depicts an aircraft flown by Col. A.I Pokryshkin, CO 9.GIAD, Summer 1944.
Although not up to the high standards of the kits that followed this issue, Eduard's Airacobra retains the poise of the real aircraft.

Here are a pair of Arma Hobby Bell P-39D / P-400 Airacobras which I recently completed. The Arma P-39s are excellent kits which build up well and look the part, these were built OOB with no aftermarket or scratchbuilding of any kind. [...]

No issues to note other than the ones I created for myself.
As with all Arma kits careful placement will repay you in the end.
Primed with Mr. Surfacer 1500 [...]
P-39s Airacobra and lead corrosion
Eduard's 1/48 P-39 Airacobra variants are excellent kits that are well detailed and look like the famous aircraft when assembled. I took out these models from my display cabinet where they rested for two decades.
As I was photographing the [...]
Arma Hobby 1/72 P-39N
Love these Arma Hobby kits, even though they are a tad over-engineered. It probably took me about as much time to get the interior finished and the fuselage closed up, as it did all the rest of the process! The kit comes with a great set [...]
Pro Modeler 1/48 P-39Q Airacobra
The origins of the Airacobra can be traced back in 1937, when USAAC issued a specification calling for a single-engine high-altitude interceptor. The aggressive specifications called, among others, for a liquid-cooled Allison engine [...]
