Accurate Miniatures 1/48 B-25C Mitchell

Vic Tatelman's Dirty Dora is perfectly rendered by Accurate Miniatures. It so well molded that I did not expand the radius of engine cowls being afraid to spoil the build...

B-25D Tondelayo T1/48th scale, Accurate Miniatures 1/48th scale

The goal of the project was to represent B-25D-1 #41-30669 Tondelayo of the 500th B.S. at Nadzab in June of 1944. My key reference is the excellent history of the 345th Bombardment Group Warpath Across the Pacific by Lawrence J. Hickey. I [...]

On January 7, Sag Harbor Express 1945 took off from Tacloban Airfield on Leyte piloted by 2nd Lt. Arthur Browngardt, Jr. on a low level bombing and strafing mission against Clark Field on Luzon. Over the target, it pull up to avoid an A-20 [...]

B-25 1/48 painted to highlight the stressed surface

It was first built in March 2023 and returned to the workbench for enhancements in April 2024. I've coined the nickname "Inca" for my unique technique of using only painting skills to create the stressed look of airplane skin. [...]

Accurate Miniatures 1/48 PBJ-1D Mitchell: VMB-433, Solomon Islands, 1944

Coworkers can turn out to be pretty cool. This (last?) year my coworkers invited me to participate in the Secret Santa game, or the anonymous gift exchange. I was doubtful, as who could really get another random person, someone we know [...]

Hong Kong Models 1/48 Mitchell B-25J "Glazed Nose"

My first HKM kit and I was really chuffed with the fit of the kit. It is beautifully engineered and fits together nicely except for the top of the fuselage which gave me some issues. I believe this is a known issue. I got the seam sorted [...]

Biafra B25 Mitchell

Here is one of two B25's used briefly at the start of the Biafra War of 1967-1970. Scale 1:72. This is the old Italeri kit modified and panel lines engraved. Weathering kept to a minimum as these things were not in use for long.

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 [...]

Airfix B-25B Mitchell 1/72

This is a B25 from the 34th bombardment squadron in 1941, according to Airfix. I was surprised to see how small the B25 actually is. Painted with AK interactive and Ammo Mig acrylics. Panel line wash also by Ammo Mig. Someone posted a [...]
