Good Day Everyone. It has been a few years since I posted on the forums. Last year, I equiped myself with a laser cutting machine. With time, I got more knowlegedable and confident with it's use. In my latest projects included making WW2 US Carrier Decks I also made a 1/48 brick wall file, scored on white cardboard obtained from the Dollar Store at 2 for $1. These measure 22" x 48". A ten count costs $5 and I cut them 11" x 14", so I get 40 boards. A little hint here for users who would begin in this field, make a practice cut on cardboard instead of was

Now that my resurrection of the SR-71 Blackbird is proudly showing herself, it’s time to build the only plane that was able to lock-on the Blackbird: the Saab Viggen. The Viggen always was a special plane to me, showing a complete different design compared to US, Russian and European fighters. Next to the stunning splintered camo scheme! I will however build the air defense variant JA-37, simply because I like it in a way with its neat two-tone coloured scheme, with colourful squadron details. The Italeri kit comes with its reviews and flaws, as the sprues a

Hello there. I don't know if You have it similar, but I get a million ideas for different builds. All over the time. This makes me push back some other projects afar. This is one of this projects that keeps getting pushed down the ladder (along with some 1/48 Phantoms). And since today I got my resin goodies from Flying Leathernecks for Hornets I really need to keep my focus on this one or else I'll go off building more 1/48 F/A-18's. I keep wanting to build that F/A-18F from VFA-211 that would look nice with a Hasegawa F/A-18D... no no. wait. Ok. I'm focused. I never b

Hi everyone! First of all, I would like to thank everyone who always helps me. I have some questions about Su-33, so I ask you again. 1. Isn't it wrong to install SVP-24 on the Red 68, 80 and 86 bird included in MINIBASE's 1/48 scale Su-33 product? 2. Isn't the part in the yellow circle in the picture wrong when mounted with SVP-24? Some Cockpit photos were found not to be equipped. 3. Is the red circle marked part of the picture a part that is no longer mounted on the Su-33? I wrote it using a translator. My sentence can be diffic

Landing gear must be installed way too early in the build according to the instructions. I couldn't figure out another way to do it. Miracle of miracles, I so far have not broken them off. Did the spinner early. I figured this was a critical paint job and wanted it done and out of the way. Xtracolour Sky and Extra Dark Sea Grey. Hours of masking fun. Next to the USN scheme of light gull gray over white, this is one of the top five operational schemes ever. Finally got those two 1/48 Armstrong Siddeley Double Ma

Seems I'm a few years too late. But I'm hoping someone has an extra set for sale. Thanks! Jeff -
Squadron and operation are not decided, maybe Black snakes from Indiana ANG or Flying tigers, both have great nose art, or jets form Davis-Monthan, purely depanding on how well the decals are dealt with. Starting from 3D print ejection seat from M.C.C J -
My hog is finally done. Most interested topic "fitting", good, but not as great as TAMIYA's F-35 standard. About fitting around the raised rivets areas, no putty and sanding needed or very minium sanding needed. I made magnets for all the pylons and ordnances, so I could switch GBU-31 to GBU-39, LAU-68 to LAU-131, AGM-65 to GBU-38, LITNING pod to SNIPER XR. I also planed to have MJ-1C and ground staffs on the base to make a little diroma, so the kit is officially not finished yet. M.C.C 3D printed "ACES II" ejection seat D.W. 3D printed "A-10" landing ge

Hi folks. Apparently, when it comes to Hornets, all the fuss is about the new Meng kit (and to some extent Hobby Boss kit). And I'd love to build them both (even better, along the Revell, Hasegawa and Italeri kits). However, I noticed I have a lot of good to say about the Hasegawa legacy Hornet, even being as good as much more modern Kinetic kit. Considering I've built one and a lot of time ago, I suppose its finally time to put my money where my mouth is, right? And it just happens to be a time when I ran out of stash storage space so I need to get rid of some boxes! The

Good Morning Eagle fans! Inspired by my latest decal release I have to start an F-15C from my favorite USAFE Air Base Bitburg. I choose the 80-0013 or balls 13 of Captain Greg Clasen "The Claw" because our last names are quite familia and his Eagle was full of stencils and panel numbering. As for the stencils and panel numbers I will use this set: All decals or just the stencils are available here: https://www.pkproductions.de/shop/ -

Hello everyone It has been a while since my last post. This work I want to present to you, was finished during Shanghai lock down in 2022. Although the number of works completed in last year is only two, which is the lowest score in terms of quantity, I am now comforting myself with the two works that I am very satisfied with in terms of quality. One of them is this "Downed Bald Eagle" F-16CG Block 40 US Air Force 555th FS Commander's plane. The base kit is Tamiya's 1/48 F-16C/N "Aggressor", modified to Block 40 F-16CG. Aftermarket parts include Fabscale's F110 n -
