HMS Penelope 1940, Flyhawk 1/700

by NAOKI YAMANAKA on October 11, 2025 · in Ships · 14 ≡

Hello. Today I’m posting Flyhawk’s HMS Penelope. This is just my personal opinion, but among the many warships, I believe the early WWII Arethusa-class cruisers had the most graceful appearance. I imagine Penelope, painted in a solid [...]

by Marcello Rosa on June 9, 2025 · in Aviation · 16 ≡

Dear friends Here I share pictures of my latest completed model, the Airfix 1/48 Sea Vixen FAW.2, pretty much "out of the box". According to Airfix this represents a plane from No.899 Naval Air Squadron, flown from HMS Eagle in [...]

Seafire Mk.III by Eduard (with a little bit of help!)

by Tony Prince on April 15, 2025 · in Aviation · 14 ≡

I often get the inspiration to make a model from reading a book about the type: in this instance, "They gave me a Seafire" by Cdr. R 'Mike' Crosley, which gave me a Seafire too! And so a start was made. I'd left it too late to [...]

by NAOKI YAMANAKA on February 22, 2025 · in Aviation · 21 ≡

Today, I would like to upload a biplane I adore, the British Royal Navy's Swordfish. This is Tamiya's 1/48 Swordfish Mk I floatplane. Normally, I avoid 1/48 scale due to space constraints, but my desire to build this aircraft won out, and [...]

Flyhawk 1/700 Prince of Wales

by Robert Joseph Cookson on January 13, 2025 · in Ships · 12 ≡

First attempt at a battleship and first attempt at the scale. It turned out quite well, I think - they never turn out as well as we hope they might, eh ? The good thing was that I made a lot of mistakes during the building, but I also [...]

The Battlecruiser HMS Hood 1941, Flyhawk 1/700

by NAOKI YAMANAKA on December 24, 2024 · in Ships · 20 ≡

Today, I would like to introduce the 1/700 scale model of the British battlecruiser HMS Hood. I'm using a kit from Flyhawk, which recreates the ship as it appeared during the Battle of the Denmark Strait in 1941. This was quite a challenge [...]

Review: 1/72 Sword Fairey Gannet AEW.3

by James Brian Pruitt on December 15, 2024 · in Reviews · 3 ≡

I like 1960's Fleet Air Arm (FAA) aircraft and inspired by the amazing painting on the box art, I purchased Sword's Fairey Gannet AEW.3, in 1/72 scale. I chose the second set of markings, included in the kit, depicting aircraft XP224 of [...]
