Revell 1/48 Arado 234C-3
The Arado 234C was equipped with four BMW 003A instead of the pair of Jumo 004 engines. Not only that the aircraft gained additional thrust, but also more Jumo engines could boost the Me 262 manufacturing effort.
Revell's Arado is an [...]

Head-to-Head Broncos, Academy & ICM
I tried another head-to-head comparison build of a vintage and a recent new tool kit; this time 1/72 scale OV-10A kits. I built the venerable Academy kit originally issued in 1999 and the 2023 ICM kit. The OV-10 is a distinctive iconic [...]

ProModeller 1/48 F-84G Thunderjet
A very nice depiction of the Thunderjet by ProModeller/Revell. The intake part though, requires attention because it is significantly smaller in diameter than the fuselage front.

Two old Revell box-scale kits
The vintage Revell B-47 and P6M box-scale kits, assembled as desk models. Simple builds, I only corrected some small shape issues (on the jet nacelles of the B-47) and struggled to make some parts fit. Just to show that old kits, these are [...]
Curtiss Hawk P-36 – Revell 1/72
Here is my vintage Revell Curtiss Hawk, upgraded and corrected. The kit is still excellent if a few easy corrections are made:
Fuselage top width (aft of the cockpit) to be increased abt 2mm with plastic strips, 1mm between the cowling [...]
