Tamiya 1/48 Bf-109E-7

by Tom Cleaver on October 12, 2018 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

The Bf-109E-7 was the airplane the Luftwaffe should have had at the beginning of the Battle of Britain, since it was the first Bf-109 to be plumbed to carry a 300-liter drop tank, which increased its range from 660 km (410 mi)to 1,325 km [...]

Airfix 5120 1:48 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4

by Francisco Santoro on October 4, 2018 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

My first 1:48 Airfix kit, it was an absolute joy to build, except for the canopy, which had an awful fit. Parts also fitted very tight in some areas, so they had to be sanded to get a good fit. I used the kit decals to make Adolf [...]

Academy 1:48 Bf 109E-3 “Heinz Bär” boxing

by Francisco Santoro on September 30, 2018 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

This was the first kit I built after a 4 year hiatus in model building. Its the Academy reboxing of the Hobbycraft kit, which at the same time looks very similar to the Hasegawa version. The only trouble I had with this kit was that the [...]

Hans Joachim Marseille’s Bf 109G-2/Trop

by Francisco Santoro on September 30, 2018 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

This kit came straight from the box of the Academy 1:48 "Bf 109G-6/G-2 JG27" boxing. It´s a rebox of the Hobbycraft Bf 109G-6, with fuselage halves for a Bf 109G-6, so you have to make some cutting for the retractable tailwheel [...]

Eduard 1/48 Bf-109G-10 (MTT-Regensburg)

by Tom Cleaver on September 28, 2018 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

Jorg Czypionka Hunts Mosquitos: The ranks of "Great Luftwaffe Aces" do not include my friend Leutnant Jorg Czypionka. "You have to understand,I joined the Luftwaffe because I loved airplanes and flying, not for the combat. [...]

Messerschmitt Bf109 E7/4 Trop. II/JG27 North Afrika

by S. Cubas on September 9, 2018 · in Aviation · 9 ≡

Hi guys! This is the Tamiya kit, 1/48th. Belonged to II/JG27 in North Afrika in 1942. A good model, but being Tamiya, I expected more from the decals. A bit thick and difficult to fight with them. Hope you like it, Sifredo Cubas

1/48 Tamiya Messerschmitt Pre-Production Me-262 “S” (Werknummer 130006), “VI + AF”

by Louis Gardner on August 28, 2018 · in Aviation · 47 ≡

Here's another article that I hope you enjoy... This time it's based on Tamiya's excellent Me-262 in 1/48 scale. This model was started as I was "hitting the wall" and getting bogged down with research on the group of 4 Tamiya [...]

Zvezda Bf-109 F4

by Thiago C. M. Pacheco on August 24, 2018 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

Hey there, fellas. This is my attempt at Zveda’s 1/48 F4. The kit is very detailed and has a lot of options, but the build can be a little finnicky with all the engine parts. I have mixed feelings about kits with such options: it seems [...]

Not Tamiya… but Zvezda 109 G-6 1/48

by Pedro L. Rocha on August 12, 2018 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

I've started some months ago a WIP doing a side by side build of 2 bf.109 G-6, one from Eduard and the other from the lesser know mould of the russian company Zvezda. As you can see the kit builds very well providing one carefully reads [...]
