I have converted peters Anigrand Bonus Kit page from 'frontpage' to proper(ish) HTML.
In addition, I have started to extend the catalogue to include the kits released after the scope of peters page ended.
I am hoping that - people can help out, to push this over the line.

Some interesting proposals there. I recall seeing from one of those Filipino companies, formerly on evilBay. It was supposedly 1/144 and was very nicely constructed and finished if the photos were any indication; I do recall the national markings being simply white discs, but...
Hi all,
Below is an ongoing list of all the 1/144 Japanese Gasaphon aircraft kits that have been made.
There is a Japanese site (Military Museum) that also lists these kits with pictures here:

Please add or amend as you see fit AND I will then add your comments to the below list (and delete your post in order to maintain the thread for easy viewing)....

Somehow I managed to post the same message twice... 🙄
If you have begun your 1/144 Bomber collection, or are considering to subscribe to get all the models (an offer available to French, Spanish, Italians and –recently- British 1/144 fans) here is my review.
here is an useful link: (french edition, with images of almost every...

With our recent influx of new members, a timely reminder that diecasts can augment your 1/144 collection very nicely, even if you end up filling all the obvious gaps and repainting the things. If you are looking for some good starting point, the Altaya/IXO models (and several...
I thought it might be handy to have a listing of available aircraft by country.

Yes, we can officially remove all FE-Resin links. The website hung around for a number of years after the company's demise and the birth of from the ashes. As we know, some of the range made the transition across to Miniwing initially, including the Avia B-35 and the majority of...

Merci bien. So - very briefly - had a look into the differences. The principal one is as you note - the dihedral on Roc replacing the straight wings with upturned wingtips on the Skua. There are also a number of differences with engines and obviously rear fuselage cut down...
I want to compile a list of all the resin aircraft manufacturers both current and old.
Please add any extra detail such as if still in business, what kits they produced if known, quality of kit, decals, etc.
Kami de koro koro (now Piccolo Model Factory) have a seperate listing...

On reflection, I really do not think my is an Eiriksson...and prefer to return to my original belief that it was a product of someone who once worked for Corgi.
That said, I have to say that the Eiriksson stuff is very attractive.
Here is a list of all the Fairy aircraft kits that are known.
1. Romania Air Force PZL.23 Karas

No.19, apparently released Feb 14 - 1/144 Nakajima C3N1
'During the formative years of Japan's air forces, she purchased some types for evaluation (like the Seversky 2PA-B3 and the Dewoitine D.510 which some contend helped in the development of the Zero) and she allowed her...
I'm trying to build up my collection of unmade Welsh Models RAF post war kits but there are a few that I don't know anything about. This means I can't search for them to obtain.
Does anyone know of a full listing, or know which kits were allocated the following numbers?
An elderly Breguet XIX is prepared for a training flight, while businessman Giorgos Koutarellis is given a tour of the airfield and taken to see one of the Avia 534s he purchased and gifted to the Greek air force the year before.
Started a new Eduard's MiG 21 , jugoslav denomination L-15 , this time is the M version .
Think I'll modify some details on the outside but the major work will be inside - I want to turn on the engine ...
As the first thing, I had to make new turbine exhaust ( piece No A 4)...
the second one to be finished was this Revell 1/144 F4U Corsair. built OOB.

Nice little trio! I also like the old Revell kits and it can be very rewarding to make something representable out of the little you get in the kit. And I agree, the US models are the best of the lot.

Grumman F4F-4 Wildcat, as flown by the US Navy in 1943.
the kit is the old Revell Microwings 1/144 Wildcat, built OOB.
this is the first of 3 recently finished US Navy aircraft in 1/144 scale (to be posted later)
i have another Wildcat underway, which will be finished as a...

I agree with Greg, the Wildcat was the nicest of all the Revell micro wings.

3rd and last one for today, the Revell 1/144 SBD-5 Dauntless, built OOB.

Very nice, Nils.
This was the first kit I ever built, in 1977, more or less.
Very fond memories of it. It survived many battles in my bedroom and I think I still have the remains of it somewhere.
I have one of the re-issues in my stash waiting to be built. :)
The Dragonfly was Westland's license-built version of the Sikorsky S-51, the Royal Navy receiving around 85 HR.1 and HR.3 variants (principal difference being metal rotor blades on the latter) for Air Sea Search and Rescue. It...

That looks great Angus, especially on the base. Lovely job on the photos too!
When I was living with - and taking care of - my mom (whom passed last January) I started a couple of kits, just something to give my hands something to do during the down times . I knew it just had to be something that wasn't construction-oriented so I decided to give this a...
Hello,
I completed this Revell Apache during lockdown. I used Hataka acrylic paints with watercolour for weathering.

Thanks for the advice :) :) :)
My display shelve was complete empty, then i decided to start this as an fast and cheap project (you always can get another revell apache to build), then i didn't care about some details as handles and turbines but, at the end, the weathering gave...
There's truth to the old aeronautical adage that you can land a DC-3 anywhere...
This build has been on my bench since 2019 I think. I can't actually remember when I started it (slightly troubling!). It was not actually a wildly complicated build but took a fair time for one...

Superb! It captures this subdued chilly northern aura.
I especially like the subtle OD shading/discoloration near wing root.
