• Marin Gigi Cristinel gets things started today with his 1/72 Amodel Messerschmitt Bf-109 G2.  Marin built his Bf-109 more or less out of the box with some added weathering and detailing.   

• Ion Ion joins us with his 1/72 MPM IAR -80.  This model kit required quite a bit of work to get it more accurate, but Ion persisted and came out with quite a nice model.    

• Marin Gigi Cristinel is here with his 1/72 Italeri Ju87 D3 Stuka.  Marcin converted a Ju-87 D5 to a D3 and added weathering and Romanian markings.  Nicely done. 

• Radu Brinzan is here with his  1/32 Revell Bf109G4.   Radu added resin and photo etched goodies to detail his 109 and the results are excellent....have a close look at the cockpit.  

• Andrei Mitu joins us with his 1/72 Heller PZL 23 A/B Karas.  This good looking model was detailed to produce a fine looking model.   

• Christian Curec is here with his 1/48 Hasegawa Isamu Sasaki’s Ki-84.   Christian did lots of extra work to his Ki-84 and includes some very interesting WW2 history about this aircraft and the Ace pilot that flew it.....and his B-29 victories.  

• Ion Tesu is here with his 1/48 LTD IAR-80.  Ion did some detailing to improve his IAR-80.  Nicely done. 

• In the Test Post Clubhouse there is a new funny picture and daily joke.
