So you want to be a Naval Aviator?
I haven't posted in a bit as I continue on with my Trumpeter A-1H build. I decided I wanted a pilot in the cockpit, but my choices in 1/32 were pretty much...nadda. The ZM pilot is hard to find, and not all that great. Aerobonus does [...]
USS West Virginia
Ever since I got the USS West Virginia in World of Warships, I have really wanted to build a model of it. There were some fitting issues with the kit but it was a pretty fun build. The entire thing is painted with one paintbrush. This is [...]
Messerschmitt Bf-109 G10 – Trumpeter 1/24th scale
Evening all,
Here's the latest model off my bench - Trumpeter's 1/24th scale Bf-109 G10. Built more or less out of the box, but with the addition of some Eduard seatbelts and some Barracuda wheels. I also opened up the armour plate behind [...]
1:32 Trumpeter TBF Avenger
About a year ago I added a 1:32 TBF Avenger to my stash thinking it would be something I worked on in the long dark days of winter. It’s a huge carrier-based bird and I wanted to build one. Then the virus & quarantine hit and my wife [...]
1/32 Trumpeter P-40F Warhawk “El Tigre”
Yet another one from the pandemic isolation days. This is 1/32 Trumpeter P-40F Warhawk “El Tigre” (41-14245) tactical code “87” from 66th FS / 57th FG Sicily 1943.
The kit’s top curve of the nose is off, it is not as it needs to [...]
Skyraider R3350-Duplex Cyclone Engine, jigsaw puzzle from Trumpeter!
So, I hope the rest of the instructions are better than the engine instructions! Some trial and error and leaving out a part that can't be seen that interfered with the whole works and I got her together. Thankfully there are lots of [...]
БТМ-3М
Модель советского быстроходного траншеекопателя БТМ-3М. Фототравление Voyadger вышло уже после окончания сборки. Дополнительно [...]
Trumpeter 1/35 IS-7
Straight outta World of Tanks, it's the IS-7!
This is an absurd vehicle, and it was too absurd even for the post-GPW Soviet Army, which rightly rejected it.
But WHAT IF...?
So, I guess this needs a backstory? What if a mass uprising of [...]
Trumpeter 1:48 MiG-3 Late Version
This is said to be the aircraft of Capt. A.V. Schopov, of 6 IAP, 6 IAK (Fighter Air Corps), IA-PVO (Moscow Air Defence), winter 1941/42. There is no photo of the aircraft. The box top shows gun pods under the wings but none are in the kit [...]
MiG-21F-13 “Fishbed-C” – 32nd Fighter Guard Regiment, VVS, Kublinka AB, USSR, 1962
Bonjour chers iModelers,
Please find my rendition of the MiG-21F-13 from Trumpeter at 1/48 scale. The F-13 is my favorite version of the MiG-21, very sharp.
Finish metal has been realized with Vallejo Metal Color paints with an undercoat [...]
