1/48 F-8E Crusader
Robert Bausch's nice Crusader posted a few days back inspired me to post mine. We did the exact same thing, Esci decals on a Monogram Crusader. I added a lot of stencils too, from an old Microscale F-8 sheet. I remember shortening the [...]
Monogram 1/48 Me262
Here is a kit that has languished half built for about 6 years or so. I finally put a push on completing it early this year and while completed a month ago, I didn't have time to try and post it until now.
It is what you find in the kit [...]
Monogram 1/48 F-8E Crusader…
The Vought F-8 Crusader has always been a favorite of mine. It has to me some of the same classic look as the Hawker Hunter does. And it was one of the greatest Navy fighters ever, a fitting jet descendant of the famous Vought F4U Corsair. [...]
Monogram 1/48 Hawker Hurricane IIa...
Here is another of my old Monogram 1/48 kits from way back, the Hawker Hurricane (by the way, you’ll be happy to know I’m running out of these!). I put a bit more work into this one than I did on the FW 190. It has a scratch built [...]
Russia sings the “Blues”…. (Monogram 1/48 Mig 29)
In 1992, the Blue Angels took the show to Moscow, a country they'd spent their careers learning to fight. ( ? Blue Angels trip in Moscow, Russia, 1992 - YouTube ) This was quite an experience for all involved, and was the epitome of the [...]
Monogram 1/48 Focke Wulf 190A-2…
This is a model I built quite some time ago, but I thought I would throw it into the iModeler brewing pot in case it might interest a couple of folks. But, it is not a P-40! It’s from the old Monogram FW 190A-7 (?) kit that could be [...]
Monogram 1/48 P-38M “Night Lightning”
I finished this one a few months ago but I haven't gotten around to do an article on it until now. So hang on, here is my story of how I came to build an old 1/48 Monogram P-38!
I am not a 1/48-guy, not at all really, but in 2013 my [...]
Revell – Monogram B 29 1/48
Well at long last here is my finished B29 and I have to say it has been a real pleasure, for a very old moulding with raised panel lines it still builds up into a lovely looking kit ,there is a surprising amount of detail in the forward [...]
Monogram 1/48 Canadair Sabre Mk. 4...
I started this kit many years ago, but just finished it in the last year or so. I don’t think I originally intended to do it as an RAF machine, but I really like the classy RAF camo and squadron markings, so that’s how it turned [...]
D-Day C-47A of the 94TCS / 439TCG at Devon U.K.
This aircraft was flown by the Group Commander of 94TCS / 438TCG, Colonel C. H. Young. The painting on the nose of the aircraft is of a sailing ship named Argonia. Argonia was the hometown of Colonel Young. I have the utmost respect for [...]
