Classic Kit: Hawk 1/48 Lockheed T-33

by David Garcia on July 10, 2021 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

This is the HAWK which was first issue in 1958 and Testors last issued it in 1989. It is marked with Caracal decals for a Langley AFB hack. The cheat line should be blue and not black, but that's what Caracal provided, and like many [...]

Vintage: Lindberg 1/51 F-94 Demonstrator (1954)

by David Garcia on July 9, 2021 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

This is an oldie and dates back to early 1950s. Heck it's older than I am. It does not look like much in the box but I thought lets build it anyway. The only thing holding me back were markings. Due to the scale finding decals were a [...]

Classic Kit: Matchbox 1/72 Spitfire Mk IX PK-2

by David Garcia on July 8, 2021 · in Aviation · 25 ≡

Hello everyone, this is my first post here. I build old kits, the older the better. I especially like Revell, Aurora, HAWK, Matchbox and Airfix from the 1950s and '60s and 1970's. This Matchbox PK-2 of the 1/72 Spitfire Mk IX upgraded [...]

AIRFIX 1/76th CROMWELL, SHERMAN TANK, JEEP & TRAILER

by Tony Anderton on June 11, 2021 · in Armor · 2 ≡

Just built these 2 for my son who wants to build a "D-Day" themed diorama (meaning i'll end up attempting it) Straight from the box, few parts (but some very tiny). The only thing i wish i had changed is on the Jeep. That is the [...]

Captured Hawk, P-36/ H75 in the Luftwaffe. Monogram 1/72.

by Robert Royes on June 8, 2021 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

This represents one of the dozen or so H 75's that were captured by Germans, which sold many to the Finns. I think that the Monogram kit is still the best representation of the P-36 in 1/72. Thanks go to Tom Bebout for supplying the kit.

1978 Monogram ME-262 Revisited

by Jay Mitchell on May 25, 2021 · in Aviation · 20 ≡

This was my 7th and last build for 2020. This kit's box and instruction sheet had a copyright date of 1978. The decals were in poor condition and not useable. Fortunately I had some decals from an Italeri kit. It was built out of the box [...]

Vintage Revell P-39 Airacobra 1/46 scale

by Roberto Lúcio - Bob on May 4, 2021 · in Aviation · 32 ≡

As I had said in some of my previous posts, following my project to restore or even to build vintage models which bring me back good memories, now I went to this 1955 original Revell mold of P-39 Airacobra. My oldest brother Pedrinho (82 [...]

Restoring an old Westland Lysander kit: Matchbox, 1973, 1:72.

by Manuel Magrinho on December 10, 2020 · in Aviation · 29 ≡

THE CHALLENGE Lysander has always been a plane that I really liked, mainly because of the mission mystique associated with the French resistance and in the transport of agents, which it played. When a friend showed me an old Matchbox from [...]
