Favourite build in 1:48/1/72?

I used to do exclusively 1/48 kits about 20 to 30 years ago.  I still have many on display and perhaps I'll take some photos of the ones I'm still pleased with.  But my favouirite is probably the Tri-Master Focke Wulf TA-152H.

Yes, the cowling hinges are metal and do work.  Important given the engine detail provided in the kit.  This is OOB.

 

 

Cheers,

Michael

Tamiya 1:48 P-38.  The design, especially the wheel wells and doors, makes for a secure construction, and it just falls together.  If only they'd scale it up to 1:32.

 

But I have also got great satisfaction from wrestling a Special Hobby Spitfire Vc into shape.

Hasegawa J2M3 Raiden. It was perfect.

 

Aichi B7A2 Grace. Again a perfect kit.

 

Tamiya Spitfire Mk.V.

 

Pro-modeller PBY Catalina. I donated it to the museum at the Shrine of remembrance in Sydney.

 

Accurate miniatures A-36 Apache. 

 

Tamiya Bf-109 E3.

 

Tamiya P51-D.

 

Hasegawa Me-109G2. My 1st kit as an adult. JG 54 Hanns Philip winter camouflage. 

Nice picks there! I seem to remember the Tamiya P51, 109e3 and Fw 190D being nice builds. It will be good to compare with the Eduard kits I just ordered in. 
 

Hey if I see the Catalina there I’ll know who made it !

What was it like to build? Thanks! :D
