The title comes from the saying 'spoiling the ship for a ha'porth of tar' which sums this kit up very well. Some magnificent detail and high quality molding let down by poor attention to accuracy and what can only be described as general [...]

A Game of Two Harts

by Ross Paton on January 2, 2022 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Last build of the year. SECOND attempt at AMG's Hart for which the instructions can lead you well astray! This is quite an expensive kit to have to have two attempts not being an Eduard Dual Combo. First attempt I tried to be smart and do [...]

by Martin Dytrych on May 1, 2017 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

Here is my latest build, Hawker Sea Fury in Royal Egypt Air Force service. Honestly, this was mentioned as "build just for fun and display case". Even if I wanted, this kit is not good enough for any competition. Too many [...]

1/48 AMG Hawker Sea Fury prototype

by Tom Cleaver on March 24, 2017 · in Aviation · 10 ≡
