Bae Hawk 100 Series Pitot TubePublished:
The highly detailed all metal Pitot tube to replace any 1/32 Hawk 100 Kit part. I had the Kinetic Kit no 3206 in the stash so used it on that kit. The Assembly is quick and easy. The final part once the plastic piece is replaced with the metal detail part looks so much better. I would recommend this for any 1/32 Hawk kit you may have in your stash. Thanks go to Master Model for providing this super figure to review and IPMS USA for allowing me to review it for them |

Flying Wings and Radical ThingsPublished:
When I was offered the opportunity to review this book I was so excited as I have always been fascinated by John K. "Jack" Northrop and his designs. The book arrived and I was immediately impressive with its size, quality and content! It was a joy just to have and flick thro as the pictures and drawings are fantastic. The book explores the whole history of the company and the may designs both paper and actually produced aircraft. The book is writing in a way that it draws you in and without being to technical gives you a great overview of the aircraft and the company’s ups and downs. I was both entertained and taught a lot while reading the book. I cannot recommend this book enough; I could not put it down and finished the whole book in under a week! The… more |

The detail quality is great, there minimal flash or other imperfections. The parts once removed from the mold base are ready to assembly. The Assembly is quick and easy. The final part is painted and I did my best but I am not a very good figure painter and did not do this great figure justice. This is the first PJ Productions product I have worked with and I was very impressed with it. I am really looking forward to buying more of this great quality figures.

US Army LeTourneau Field Compaction RollerPublished:
L.Z Models has provided another great accessory for any military tractor. These were used to flatten ground to allow the building of airfields and camps, etc. The detail quality is great, with minimal flash or other imperfections. The parts, once removed from the mold base, are ready to assembly. The small parts are very delicate and you must take extreme care when removing them from the mold base. The assembly is quick and easy. The final part is painted olive drab and looks great as an addition to any diorama. Thanks go to L.Z Models for providing this kit to review and IPMS USA for allowing me to review it for them. |
