by Editor on May 23, 2025 · in Reviews

The Curtiss H.75, known in U.S. service as the P-36 Hawk, was a first-generation monoplane fighter that saw front-line service with many air forces early in World War II. Though quickly overshadowed by more advanced designs, it played a [...]

Rudell's Ju-87 kanonenvogel. Hungary, dec 1944

by Manuel Magrinho on May 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 4 ≡

Not much to say about this nice kit from Italeri. The build went smoothly and I'm pleased with the result. Painted all the marks that I could and the few decals were printed at home to represent this particular bird. Paint and clear coats [...]

Spanish Civil War...1/48 Henschel Hs123A-1, Legion Condor

by Reinhard Spreitzhofer on May 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 2 ≡

Next one finished. The wonderful Gaspatch Hs123 in Condor Legion markings. Molding, fit and detail are great, although some of the PE parts are veeeery tiny. Regarding the decals, don´t know if (like with the recently posted Thai Ki27) [...]

Brazilian Navy Super Lynx AH-11A (Hobby Boss 1/72)

by Paulo Castro on May 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 6 ≡

This HB kit is very nice and with little effort you can have a nice representation of the Super Lynx helicopter. But, I decided to spruce it up a little and did a few scratch built improvements to the interior (seats, seat belts, etc). I [...]

F-5E_VFC-111 Sundowners (Dream Model 1/72)

by Paulo Castro on May 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

Well! Not a dream model but quite the opposite. I was tricked by assuming that this new release would be a better kit than the Hobby Boss I had built before. For my surprise, it was very similar to the Hobby Boss kit but with an increased [...]

W.35 Wyvern S Mk.4 (Trumpeter 1/72)

by Paulo Castro on May 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 7 ≡

Trumpeter kit, OOB nice kit, good fit.

Me262 b1a/U1 "Red 9"(Revell Ag 1/72)

by Paulo Castro on May 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 5 ≡

I know there are more modern kits of this version, however I had this in my stash and decided to build it. Surprisingly the Revell kit, despite its age, is still a very good kit. I did some scratch built to improve the kit though, opened [...]

Gefechtsroboter-Hammerschlag (1/35)

Just having fun with this Mecha Gefechtsroboter-Hammerschlag

P-51B "Shangri-La"(KP 1/72)

by Paulo Castro on May 23, 2025 · in Aviation · 3 ≡

I've built this KP kit together with the Arma Hobby to compare the kits. KP is a very good kit, whilst it doesn't have the same detail level as the Arma Hobby, it does build easier and straightforward. Recommended.

Willy's Jeep MB – Brazilian Expeditionary Force, Italy 1944 (Airfix 1/72)

by Paulo Castro on May 23, 2025 · in Armor · 5 ≡

My first ever military vehicle in 1/72nd scale. The Airfix jeep is not bad and was built OOB, the only change was to use a set for the Brazilian Expeditionary Force during Italy 1944. The base was scratch built using an old award base.
