ICM 1:48 Mr Hobby paints Very poor moulding...ailerons have smushy detail and undershot! Difficult build

Finnish Lagg-3 by LTD Models

Greetings iModeler compadres. My latest project is a captured Soviet Lagg-3. The model kit is by the limited run LTD Models, who were a subsidiary of the old mail order-retail powerhouse Squadron Shop. The model was made in the Czech [...]

LaGG 3, Series 2

After seeing David Lane's excellent build I thought I post my effort from 2015. It was built OOB except for the addition of some Extra Tech seat belts. This is the same aircraft as David's, albeit at a later time as it has the winter [...]

LaGG-3 1/48, worn winter camo

I've just finished my second model in 1/48th scale. The building process was full of inconsistency and doubts. I was extremely close to throwing the kit to the trash bin few times - some moments of the build were very frustrating to me as [...]

ICM 1/48 LaGG-3

While the Red Air Force had fielded the most advanced fighter in the world in 1934 when the I-16 joined its first operational unit, it was clear by 1939 that Soviet fighter aircraft had fallen behind the international standard. While [...]

ICM 1/48 LaGG-3 Ser.7

This is a nice little kit, and a reasonable build. First painted green/black, then oversprayed with tones of white, then grubbed up more than I am usually comfortable with. I also used an Eduard Color Zoom Interior that I found at a deep [...]
