1/35 Hobby Boss Dana 152mm Self-Propelled Howitzer
1/35 Hobby Boss Dana 152mm Self-Propelled Howitzer
Built with complete ‘Big Ed’ Photo Etch. PE panel alignment challenging. Final paint was a grainy
disaster… as last resort, I gently rubbed round Q Tip starting in center of [...]
P-39Q Airacobra 'Snooks 2nd' - HobbyBoss 80240 - 1/72
I tried another HobbyBoss 'Easy Assembly' kit and it was pretty easy and pretty quick, but has a few detail errors and/or missing items. It does provide me with an adequate Airacorbra for my case. This was good practice for the Academy [...]
1/48 Hobby Boss Me-262
Good kit, the variant Me 262 A-1a/U1, a bit fantasy from what I read. First time I attach some ordnance on a scale model plane, I liked the idea of rockets on the first jet fighter, even that maybe the build is wrong. The good news is that [...]
Saab J 29B Tunnan S/N 29475 - UN Squ. No. 22 (Sweden) - Congo - 1961/1963
Dear Imodelers,
Please find my latest model, a Saab Tunnan from Hobby Boss.

1/48 Hobbyboss F-105G Thunderchief (80333)
This kit is overall very nice but there are a lot of very fiddly bits that test the patience. In particular, the flap assembly and the exhaust assembly are a bit challenging since there are so many parts with little or not mating [...]
Flying Leathernecks/Eyes in the Sky…1/48 Grumman F4F-3P Wildcat, VMO-251, USMC
And my dad has finished the next one.
Hobby Boss F4F-3 (late) kit with Superscale decals. The wing walkway decals came from the sparesbox. The kit and also the Superscale star decdals for the wings were to small, took suiting decals from a [...]
Messerschmitt Me262A-1a Heinz “Pritzl” Bär, Hobby Boss 1/48 (No.80373 year 2011)
Finished the Messerschmitt Me262A-1a flown by Heinz "Pritzl" Bär who shot down 16 enemy aircraft flying the 262 out of his 220 aircraft shot down in total.
The Hobby Boss kit included decals to create the V355 experimental [...]
