    1/48 Tamiya Brewster F2A-2 Buffalo

    My next build is an addition to my Yellow Wings collection - the Brewster Buffalo from Tamiya. I scored this kit from ePay a little while back not knowing much it. Turns out the kit itself is quite old. The date on the sprues is 1974, which I am assuming will be the original mold block creation...

    1/48 Finemolds Kyu-Shi Ka-14 Prototype

    Seeing I have completely lost my mojo with the other project I have running at the moment, the Italeri Stuka, I thought it might be good to do a quick and dirty build of another kit that does not have quite so many build issues. So here I go with the Ka-14 from Finemolds. I have never built a...

    1/48 Italeri Junkers Ju-87 R2 Stuka

    For my next project I was looking to build a model almost out of the box. For this I chose a Ju-87 by Italeri from the stash. Whilst I say "OOB" I am sure that some minor scratching and enhancements will creep into the build, but the aim is to keep this one as simple as possible. I'd like to...

    My 2021 build Tamiya G6

    Tamiya 1/48 G6 is good kit. I want to buy it again when I can go to Japan again.

    Eduard BF109 G6/AS in Post War Finnish Marking

    This is my first Eduard. I like the kit in general, but I dislike the idea to fix the prop unlike the Tamiya poly cap or Revell stick rod method. Detachable/rotatable prop is good for transportation purpose. I wish Tamiya make Bf 109G variant, but as you know Tamiya seems to be not interested...

    1/48 Special Hobby Reggiane Re.2005 Sagittario

    Next kit on the to do list is the Re.2005 from Special Hobby. I don't have any add-ons for this kit so it will be mostly OOB with a few bits and pieces scratched together where necessary. It's my first Special Hobby kit so I don't really know what to expect quality wise. The kit components look...

    1/48 Hobby Craft Boeing P-26A

    I am yet to finish the Tamiya Corsair (thread in this forum) but cold weather and an impatience to get this particular kit underway means I have already made a start on this. Firstly - some details on the kit. It's a pretty old kit (early 1990's) and the quality of the moldings is reasonable...

    1/48 Tamiya F4U-1 Bird Cage Corsair

    Now I've called the Bf-109B as finished I have started on the next kit - Tamiya's Bird Cage Corsair. I won't go into too much about the kit - it is quite well represented by other members. I have decided to bling it up a little bit with a QuickBoost engine and some selected bits from the Eduard...

    Decals For Bf109E-3... Looking For Something Different

    I have an 1/48 Eduard Weekend Edition Bf109E-3. Being a Weekend Edition it has one decal/color scheme. I am not one to do the usual stuff, so I would like to do something a little different. Can anyone point me to some decal sets that might offer some good alternatives to the norm?

    1/48 Esci Henschel Hs 123

    As I may have mentioned in another thread, I only do 1/48th aircraft, and only those types flown by Hans-Werner Lerche, a Luftwaffe test pilot. Last year I started a second-hand Esci kit of the Hs 123. I didn't realise that there were a few issues with the model (some interesting warping of the...

    User Name: Mainly28s Name: Olaf Category: Beginner (possibly upgading to Intermediate as discussed elsewhere) Kit: Smer Fiat G.55 Scale: 1/48 Accessories: Assorted decals My main interest is 1/48th aircraft. Of course, I don't do things the easy way, so I picked a specific pilot to honour...

    Need info: B-17G Nine O Nine, the original

    Good Afternoon Everybody: I'm getting ready to do a 1/48 Nine-O-Nine and I am trying to make it as accurate to the real one as possible, not the one flying right now (sorry Collings Foundation). I have found plenty of photos, some even in color, but there is still one area that eludes me, and...

    1/48 Dora Wings Messerschmitt Bf-109B

    For my first effort back into modelling in many years I thought it best to stick to an OOB build (at least as much as possible). I found this kit at the LHS and have always been keen to do an early 109 – preferably dressed in Spanish Civil War colours. Having made a start on the kit I found the...
