1/48 F-106B
Finished another one! This is the very new Trumpeter two-seat Dart. It's a kit I really looked forward to and started it when I received it in early July. It's a nice kit, that assembles well, with a few flaws. The biggest issue to me [...]
1/48 F-101B Voodoo
This is one of two Monogram Voodoos that I purchased back in 1985, when they were brand new. I built the first immediately, and it ended up on the backyard target range for my son's pellet gun circa 2001. When Caracal Models released [...]
McDonnell F-4D Phantom, Monogram 1/48 scale
Here is the venerable Monogram F-4D Phantom in 1/48, a model that many of us have built at one time or another. The kit was built basically OOB, with the addition of Verlinden resin ejection seats and decals from the Furball [...]
Hawker Typhoon MKl B
This is my latest work of propeller warbird . It is a 1/48 kit of the monogram, simple but with reasonably fittings. I preferred to paint the D-Day stripes, instead of decals.. Some weatering, not to much, gives a final touch...
1/48 Monogram C-47
Built this kit several years ago and it was my first try at a multi-engine aircraft, after years of absence from this hobby. Built it to honor my dad who made 21 jumps from this type during the war. It's no show stopper but he was proud to [...]
A couple Monogram “Classics” at the airport
Last week's trip to the Cameron Airport involved five models and none had been photographed out there before. Although it was really hot, I managed to get a few pics of each plane. Both of these are ancient 1/48 Monogram kits, and both [...]
Monogram 1/48 Dassault Mirage 2000
The model is the Monogram 1/48 Mirage 2000, the instructions are dated 1986. I built the kit somewhere between '93 and '95. It had never been photographed at all until last Tuesday. When it was built way back then, I had very little [...]
BELL UH-1B “Huey” – Monogram – 1:48
Model built from a scrap of a very old kit!
Many pieces have been replaced and a lot has completed the technique of scratchbuilding (using aluminum cans).
The model has all the movable parts (doors, access, rotors) as the original!
A [...]
Building Monogram's 48th Scale DO-335 Arrow
I built this kit a while back. I have seen this aircraft at Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum/Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center at the Dulles Airport in Washington DC. It is HUGE!
I ran across some photos taken right after the war when [...]
U.S.Coast Guard HU-16E 1963
Well today is the US Coast Guard's 225th birthday, so I had to post something the "wing maggots" (we-who-did-not-fly's endearing term for our CG aviator brothers) would recognize. It's the last of my Monogram 1:72 scale HU-16's [...]
