48th Scale Monogram F-102
Just wrapped up one of my club project commitments. Our club is working on a ongoing display of aircraft as they relate to Florida. Our plan is to use the collection to represent our club when asked to display at libraries etc. These good [...]
Hey, Abrahamson, my landing gear works!….
Built this one, with my Dad, more than once in the dark ages, always fighting the working landing gear. Well, this one works (when will it give out? The shadow knows). Built right out of the (old) box, axles melted over to hold the wheels [...]
1/48 Monogram P-39 Airacobra
Here's another one we've all built, the trusted, old, Mongram P-39 airacobra. I've been led to understand that this was Monogram's first attempt at a "serious" scale model. It was my second time around with it, and I still [...]
1/48 Monogram F9F-2 Panther
I thought I'd try to back date the F9F-5 to the 2 version, and so, rounded the tail a little. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but it looked ok to me. My collection needed a "Blue Angel", and I thought this would be a good [...]
Monogram F-80C Shooting Star “Salty Dog”
I thought I had posted these pics before but it seems that I haven't. With that in mind, Tom Cleaver's generous compliments in the "Monograms at the airport" thread" moved me to show the few pics that I do have of this [...]
Monograms at the airport
In keeping with recent contributions, here's a collection of some of my 1/48 Monogram planes all photographed at the Cameron, Texas airport. I think most have been previously seen here as individual posts but here they are as a group. [...]
Yet more old Monogram builds
To join in on the trip down memory lane here are a few of my old Monogram models, all were completed between 25 and 30 years ago.

Monogram 1/48 Models done long ago
I dug up these photos of some of the models I did a long time ago. I had a brief time away from modeling and then returned in 1968. My first kit upon my return was the Monogram 1/48 Hurricane. I built it OOB and painted it with gloss paint [...]
1/48 Monogram T-28A Trojan
I don't know which version Monogram did first, the A or B, but I completed the B, before I came upon this one. The only difference I can see is the cowl and the two bladed prop. Boxing in the wheel wells took as much time as building [...]
1/48 Monogram P-40
Back to basics. Straight out-of-box. I think this one has been around as long as the "Flying Tigers" themselves ! When I finally got around to building it, I discovered it wasn't a bad kit at all, for it's day. They're [...]
