    Trumpeter 1/48 C-47 (Navy R4D conversion)

    Trumpeter 1/48 C-47 (Navy R4D conversion)

    UPDATE: Since I am awaiting the interior and exterior details sets from Eduard to come in the mail, I am pretty much trying to assemble anything I can. There are plenty of interior details that will be touched up once the Eduard sets arrive, along with the engines and wheel well assemblies...

    OK!! So after doing more research and carefully looking at many different reference photos, I was ready to proceed to begin adding my own personal details to the model. I started off with the 2 exhausts. Although they are not visible from side views of the ship, it is clearly noticeable from...

    Tamiya 1/32 Mitsubishi A6M2B Zero Fighter Model 21 ZEKE

    Hello once again!!! :D So the model is coming along faster now that the basics of assembly are pretty much out of the way. Several points about the model that I've hated so far... one the retracts work, but don't go up all the way. The retractable flaps suck like crap because just the way...
