Eduard model kits

Kinetic 1/48 Lockheed Starfighter F-104N

One I've wanted to do for a while. I picked up the F-104G and some aftermarket Caracal Decals to go for the NASA 104N Primed with Tamiya Neutral Grey and Lacquer Gloss Black for the metallic surfaces. Painted with. Colourcoats Dark Sea [...]

FW 190F-9 Green 2

This is the Eduard 1/48 FW 190F-8 ProfiPack. Wanted to do something different that almost put this kit in the rubbish bin. It already comes with the correct cooling fan and larger propeller for the BMW 801TS amid the unused parts. But [...]

Review: Eduard 1/48 A6M2-N "Rufe"

Following delays in the design and development of the Kawanishi N1K1 floatplane fighter, Nakajima designed and produced the A6M2-N (Navy Type 2 Interceptor/Fighter-Bomber) as a single-seat floatplane based on the Mitsubishi A6M Zero Model [...]

1/48 scale Eduard FM-2 "Wilder Cat" kit number 11175 USS Nehenta Bay, VC-8 August 5th, 1945. Lt / JG O'Connor

When I first heard that Eduard was going to be releasing a brand new FM-2 Wildcat in 1/48 scale, I was very excited. I had the older Hobby Boss FM-2 kit, and it fell short in some areas. So I was not in any hurry to spend as much money [...]

Pacific Aces...1/48 Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat, Lt. Alexander Vraciu, VF-6 "Felix Cat", USN

The doublepack naval theme continues, first of two Hellcats by my dad. Eduard Profipack 2008 edition, built oob, added EZ Line for the antenna wire. Painted with MRP Sea Blue, Intermediate Blue and AK RC White. Build thread [...]

Surrender...1/48 Mitsubishi A6M3 Type 22, IJN/RNZAF

Besides all the US naval stuff by my dad, he decided to turn Japanese a bit. New Eduard kit, a bit over-engineered, lots of detail but also many small plastic and PE parts. Fuselage to wing fit had some tension and needed work. Engine [...]

Eduard Tempest T.T.Mk.5, 1/48, 'A Jet Age Training Aide'

A long time ago I completed a dual build of Eduard's Royal Class Tempest Mk.V set, it was among the first airbrushed models I did and I was very proud of the jump in quality between those Tempests and the builds prior. That set, like all [...]

Review: Eduard's 1/48th Grumman FM-2 Wildcat

When Eduards brought us a new tool F4F-3 Wildcat late last year, we all assumed that as they have with the Zero, Spitfires and the other series of variants they would eventually give us an FM-2. And here we are much sooner than expected [...]

Eduard Bf 109F-2 and Bf 109F-4

The Eduard 1/72 scale Messerschmitts are the new kids on the block, and the new release comes with lots of bells and whistles in the form of two PE frets, Kabuki tape masks, and a generous (and interesting) decal sheet. Surprisingly, the [...]

Eduard 1/48 MiG 21R

The 1/48th scale MiG 21 is my favorite Eduard model. It is highly detailed. It is not over engineered and does not pose un-expected design hurdles. Most of all it has almost endless attractive color schemes. Here are two examples of the [...]
