Some more pictures of my Messerschmitt Bf-109G-6

Found today some more pics of my long ago built 1/48 Hasegawa's Bf-109G-6 flown by Georg Amon.

Another masterpiece by slava_trudu

Yesterday, I've found a latest masterpiece by Alexander Nevzorov (aka slava_trudu) - 1/72 Bell XF-6A. The model is built from Airmodel's resin kit. Apart from extra detailing and building this kit, Alexander has added a fullu natural metal finish to the ready model covering it with foil. The article is on Russian, but pics speak for themself.

Military Aviatos of The Perished Empire

Here's the book I've recently purchased - "Military Aviation of The Perished Empire" (that's mine free translation from Russian "Военлеты погибшей империи"). Highly recommended to all WW1 and also Russian aviation fans:

My favourite Jugs - P-47 Thunderbolts!

P-47 Thunderbolt photo gallery can be found here. Here're some of my favourite:










I guess enough for today...

Now that's INTERESTING ;)

Lucky pilot gets to see an almost naked babe... I wonder why he has that sceptical eye... ;)

And that is MAD!

More Hellcat WW2 flavour

Found some more pics of World War 2 Grumman F6F Hellcat pics here. Finally I've also found Royal Air Forces Hellcats! Enjoy!

PS. Pay good attention to the weathering that can be seen on some of the photos ;) And, of course, masking and painting process shown here :)))

Another Fw-190A-8 cockpit picture

One photo that I forgot to attach. The canopy is in place and is masked with Tamiya supplied kit's masks, so here's the last pics oof the canopy opened:

Armour plates that can be seen in this pics were later removed and replaced with thin plastic sheet scratchbuilt ones.

FW-190A-8 Sturmbock in progress

Well, just wanted to share some pics of my 1/48 Tamiya FW-190A-8/R8 "Rauhbautz". The fuselage and wings glued together. I've made some modifications to the kit:

1. Replaced armour plates around the pilot's place on the fuselage.
2. Antena mast on the fin tip was scratchbuilt - Tamiya or a shop managed to break the parts while transporting - just antenna fin tip was broken.
3. Oleos one the wheel legs were replaced with aluminium tubing.
4. Original Tamiya's drop tank was replaced with Eduard's (THANX TO JESPER!!) - and some minor scratchbuilding involved.
5. I'm in the begining of rivetting process... ;/

Anyway, here're some pics of the mentioned parts:
