kit

In anticipation of the painting of my Sanger Ki-67, I decided to do a "test" model to get my airbrush and model painting skills back to an exeptable level. The model of choiche is the Old Hasegawa (Ex-Mania) kit of the Kawanish N1K2. I simply chose this kit since I had in my stash. Since I also...

Here's my finished build of the 1/72 HPM Sea Vixen FAW.2 in Fleet Air Arm 899 Squadron, HMS Eagle livery, circa 1969-1971. Being an old HPM injection molded kit, this build needed a lot of TLC to get it together. Think old Airfix or Frog kits amount of effort. But despite all this, it...

Here's my humble build of the new tooling 1/72 Airfix Bristol Blenheim Mk1. A very lovely kit indeed with detailed sub-assemblies for the cockpit, engines, landing flaps, landing gears, weighted tires and an incredible bomb bay and mini bomb racks. Details that you only see on bigger and more...

Hello, I don't know if it's the good place for this thread... :| I found in my stock a Tamiya Kit, The bf 109E-4/7 Trop. 61063. Normally it was for build "White 12" flown by J. Muncheberg but I decided to build his FW 190A-2 w.nr.20209. So, I would like to "transform" this E-4 kit in an E-7...

I have started what will be a very long build for me as planes go.The HK B25J is an impressive kit coming out of the box but I have gone as far to get three of the PE kits available from Eduard those being nose/bombardier,Copit and the fuselage.I have one new book thus far with another expected...

Hey guys, I'm wondering, from a modeling perspective, what are the differences between the British Phantom FG.1 and FGR.2 are. There's a basic list on Wikipedia, and it doesn't look too long, and nothing that I'd really have to worry about, but Wikipedia isn't always right, and I'm far from an...

Hello! I am going to build the 1/48 scale Ki-84 Hayate (aka Frank). I've been most active on the Group Build front recently but after five straight GB builds, I thought I'd try something that doesn't fit the current scheme. This is an aircraft that has always been a favorite of mine and I've...

I'm just wondering? Could this be done. Fuselage would need some serious surgery and it would need different shaped engine nacellers and a larger tailfin. But the G4M2/3 also had a redesigned wing with a thicker profile and different airflow. I have no idea how different the wing is of a...

Hi All, I bought a used Tamiya Dambuster/Grand slam kit (which included the Flightpath detail set) Though I'd like to build a regular bomber BI/BIII from this kit. My first impression is that the only real differences between the older kits (Dambuster/Regular Lancaster) is the absence of...

CF-104 '771', RCAF No3 Wing, Zweibrucken, November 1964. Cory's recent question regarding CF-104 decals has given me the jolt I needed to get back to the bench after such a long absence due to pain and stiffness in the shoulder. Since I had an injection in the troublesome area a fortnight ago...

Here's one of the projects on my worktable. It's an HPM Hobbies 1/72 de Havilland Sea Vixen FAW.2. The kit is made from the old style light blue HPM injected plastic. Incredibly detailed and probably the most accurate kit in 1/72 scale of the plane. Although much like the old HPM kits, it...

Hello. Some time ago I finished another MiG in Polish markings. I merged the best model by Eduard (Profipack edition) and most beautiful decals by Cartograf (taken from Academy kit). Applying such large decals designed for another kit was a a real challenge. But with few litres of Set and Sol...

Here's my build of the Hawker Hunter T.7 of RAF 20 Squadron, Tengah Airbase, Singapore, circa 1965. The main kit was from a Revell 1/72 FGA.9 from the intake to the tail section of the fuselage and wings. The front end was from PJ Production resin set conversion for a T.7 trainer. The PJ...
