  1. Construction begins and I have at least 12 more models to go Quickboost propeller for Spitfire Mk. XIVc
  2. The idea actually arose from the situation that I had already built a few Spitfires and there was actually a guy missing who would document the direct transition to the new wing design. I already have the F.22, but it is exactly one type version too late and the Mk.21 is missing in 1:48, so only a conversion is possible. Visually, this requires a Mk.XIVc and the wing and all the small parts of an F.22 and the drops are sucked. There are a few upgrade parts that you can use: A dry test showed me that the idea had to be easy to build; if it didn't fit, it would be made to fit!
  3. I have had the new 1:48 F4U-1/ F4U-2 kit from Magic Factory (China) for 4 weeks now. Finally the first kit with the best correct radar! All other kit produser have make only an error kit. I found a lot of information on this website . But there is a problem and I hope someone can help me. The F4U-2 Corsair only has two machine gun openings in the right wing. In the kit only one hole is closed. But there is no words in the instructions (which are very vague) about what the right weapon bay looks like. Are there only two Mgs there or has the shaft also been modified?
  4. No, the drawing show the horizontal deheadreal of Mk.IF or VIF, not from version Bristol Beaufighter TF.X
  5. Hi folks, the Revell Beaufighter Mk. IF model has been in 1:48 scale for a long time. Now I've decided to build the part. I have a lot of publications in my collection. SAM: Beaufighter and AJpress # 74/75 Bristol Beaufighter Squadron-Publ. # 1153 I looked at a lot of this in photos. I have the feeling that the Revell tailplane is way too small. Can anybody confirm this? I applied this horizontal stabilizer to several drawings. What is wrong? Drawing or component?
  6. 1:48 from Revell and also too from Eduard? My shop in Berlin has a one website with same rollouts from me. The kit is standing there....😎
  7. Well, since Januar 2017 I invested many time in my project J1N1-S Gekko. Now it is ready to take off to our next kit event in September 2017 in Berlin-Schönefeld. This model is easy to built, the conversion is simple. Only the picture and drawing was strong to find. All infos to this fact found on this sources
  8. The last three kit parts can you see here, in the moment only the markings are not ready, also too the little parts in front of the model and the wing antenna wire. Then - thats all. I hope I havn't forgotten a important detail? Yes, the ground is not ready in the moment ...well- I have many times to the next kit event in berlin - 4. - 5. September 2017 ... :-)
  9. In the moment I#m allone at home. My girlfirnd is on visit in Poland t a Golf Event and so I have more time for my model kit. Since two days I work hard for next steps and I see the end of my working on horizont. Also too I have make a airfild area within 45 minutes. Some more time I will invest in this part next days.
  10. Sorry of my long delay. The reason is very important for me. I started a new life section. I have a new girlfriend, new obligations. So my kit modelling was only a second party. Well, I have make some new steps in my life and also to on my model - please lock and I make no more words
  11. selfmade airbrush Japanese hinomaru. No decals in use. Underside Hinomaru
  12. In the moment I do think about the fuselage aerial. I must modifiy this part. I t is not correct in the monent, but I have a fine idea ....
  13. Well, after a long wait now I have make my next color work. The sun is shining and I have a good feeling today. In the morning I have prepared the canopy parts and now the complete kit with first navy green (one picture in sun shin and one in flash ligth)
  14. Thanks guys for your replys At the moment I am quite sick, an influenza prevents me from building. Next week more! with some litte modification I think these kit is a good basic: And also to I know this type from Revel (1972)
  15. My model is standing on own feets now. The canopy is absolutly very well fitting -WOW Same little parts for main wheels are ready colored, also too the axilary tanks.
  16. Fuselage antenna wire was made with copper wire, small self made plastic tube and cyanoacrylate
  17. I was surprised, the model is very large. It is greater as Bf 110 and has the same size as a Ju 88 -WOW All Tamiya-parts very good fitting. I have in my collection a engine set from CMK - very expansivly (only 39,95 € ). But I think the real money value is only 9,95€ It is absolutly bullsh....! But I will show here these poor quality and fit and what you can make better! Only the cockpit parts in progress! My own wing fuel tank is made with two plastiksheets, plastic spacers on all 4 corners and everything wrapped with pulp only the wing is make sticky And now - the nice CMK surprize! I do my best for a realistic engine with two engine rings. You must modified some Tamiya-parts and then fitted CMK parts on the engine place. I'not understand, why these conversion set is absolutly bullsh. At first No engine piston does not fit, all parts to great and to be rough! The ring of cooler lobes to little - well - absolutly to little. So I have modified the Tamya parts! And then - the gearing parts from CMK to long - or better - longer as Tamiya parts So I have make my correction! And all is good with my nice female neighbor
