1/48 Kfir C2 FAE (Kinetic)

Sounds like the kit is a PITA to build but the result is stunning! -
AH-1Z Viper - Cobra Redux!
RupertTheBear replied to Alan P's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Fantastic build! -
Honda Jet - 1/48 Ebbro
RupertTheBear replied to Bill Bunting's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Brilliant build, especially those chrome parts look pristine! Also diggin' that removable roof, very cool idea for presentation, something a little bit different than the usual stuff. Love the whole subject, the Honda Jet is one of the coolest looking modern planes IMO -
1/72 Hasegawa MV-22B Osprey
RupertTheBear replied to Billy54's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
That's rad! Love it! Also cool, they included a display stand. Makes sense with those massive rotors -
1/48th MiG-31BS Kazakhstan ADF
RupertTheBear replied to trickyrich's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Absolute beast! Awesome finish. At the moment I'm kinda glad I didn't pick up this kit while searching for a nice MiG-31, it always was too rich for my blood and I'm very skeptical when it comes to hypes Also I wanted the MiG-31M badly so in the end it came down to the Hobby Boss kit, which was almost half the price of the AMK so even when it's flawed...so be it -
AH-1Z "Shark Mouth" Academy 1:35
RupertTheBear replied to Koralik64's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Damn! That's one great looking bird! Was thinking about getting one of these but 1/35th is a bit big for my flat But maybe Academy will scale it down one day. -
Airfix 1:48 Gloster Javelin
RupertTheBear replied to Spitfire madman's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Damn! Your build almost makes the Javelin look good (Unpopular opinion probably but this is one of the ugliest planes ever made for me) Superb weathering and painting, love it! -

Oh wow, that weathering at the back looks spectacular! Awesome build overall.

Trumpeter MiG-23MF
RupertTheBear replied to RupertTheBear's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks I would go for it, it really is not bad at all. I'm thinking about adding a late MiG-23 to my collection. The MLD with the big countermeasure dispensers looks sexy IMO -
Trumpeter MiG-23MF
RupertTheBear replied to RupertTheBear's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Thanks, Mike! Yeah I always wondered, why Trumpeter/ HB never did a 1/72 scale MiG-23/27. They scale almost everything down. Even Zvezda isn't really touching that subject. Is the MiG-23 so unpopular? Thank you! Oh ok...so it seems to be the kit then. -
Hello everyone, first of all - I wish you a (belated) Merry Christmas, stay safe, stay healthy and I hope you find a great many kits under your trees Today I want to show my MiG-23MF Flogger B from Trumpeter in 1/48 I put together earlier this year. It was a highly enjoyable build, no major fitment issues, some rough spots around the intakes but it went together nicely. Even the worlds most complicated main landing gear, that's almost a separate kit in this kit. Very nice details on this kit too. Had a lot of fun building this bird. It is completely OOB, too. The only bigger "pr

Good for a laugh! Spitfire Mk. XIV - Starfix 1/48
RupertTheBear replied to opus999's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Oh boy, that brings back memories I pretty much started with these kits as I was like...6 or 7 years old. I had that exact Spitfire and their Bf-109 and I still remember that silver-ish plastic roughly put into a shape kinda resembling the planes written on the box, but back then I couldn't care less about such things. Today...well just the nostalgia remained Kudos what you managed to get out of this kit and even more respect for your patience!- 45 replies

Superb result! Some of my most enjoyable builds have been Tamiyas. It amazes me every time anew how good the fit is.

That's a great looking duo!

Yeah I encountered that exact problem while building the KH Su-34. At first I wanted to put 2 Kh-31 Kryptons and one Kh-59 under it but realized pretty soon, that there are not enough pylons/ rails for such a loadout, as both the Kh-31 and Kh-59 use the same. Worked the other way round, too. My next idea was to put 4 rocket pods under the wings, they even provide the dual pylons for such a loadout, but only two rocket pods. It's just plain annoying. This time they event went further and just charge you more for less kit and instead of putting some thought into the ordnance, they just got r
