The old truck keeps on going...

by Rob Anderson on March 22, 2025 · in Uncategorized · 10 ≡

A very old kit of a very old truck. Original issue Monogram MAC Bulldog stake truck. I remember seeing an old rusted out one out in afield at my aunt's farm in the '70s. Not much was left of that one, blackberries were growing through [...]

Franzis 1/2 scale BMW R90S engine

by Cricket on March 17, 2025 · in Uncategorized · 18 ≡

A fairly simple kit, the kind an adult would build with a child as an educational device. I took it a few steps further. I painted almost everything even though most would be seen through the clear parts. I put light oil on all the [...]

by Frederick J Seitz III on March 17, 2025 · in Uncategorized · 20 ≡

Calling this one as, DONE! This is number six for the year. Found this kit at a show and it is the original release that came with the PE fret. I had built this same kit many years ago, 2009 maybe? For a long time it sat on display in [...]

Arma Hobby, 1:48 Scale, PZL-11c

by Frederick J Seitz III on March 11, 2025 · in Uncategorized · 9 ≡

This is a fantastic little kit of a historic and very underrated aircraft. Arma Hobby has really knocked it out of the park with this 1:48 scale beauty. It is not an 'easy' kit. I found it to be a challenge and at the same time a lot [...]

Trumpeter, 1:32 scale, Curtiss P-40F-1-Cu, "Warhawk"

by Frederick J Seitz III on February 25, 2025 · in Uncategorized · 37 ≡

Always been a fan of the P-40, in all it's variations. I decided to build this kit because it's the only kit of the type out there. For any other marks, I would absolutely pick the Hasegawa kit every time. I was not a big fan of this [...]

Boeing PT - 17 - Kaydet

by Franco Damiani on February 16, 2025 · in Uncategorized · 2 ≡

Hi everyone, looking at the home page today I saw the review of this model and I said to myself why not publish it. It made me have a lot of fun and suffer nothing. Really inexpensive and very well designed. You just have to remember if [...]

Tamiya Honda Turbo CX500 Engine 1/6th

by Cricket on February 13, 2025 · in Uncategorized · 30 ≡

In less than 3 and a half years I have done many motorcycle Engines, 44 of them to be exact, but I have never built one like this. It was a good build until I got to the turbocharger pipes and tubes. UGH. But now I know what to do when I [...]

Classic Plastic

Monogram models was arguably the greatest model company in the world in the late 60s and early 70s, I am sure Revell would have argued the fact, (Airfix could as well) but the evidence would weigh on Monogram's side. Look at their [...]
