[FREE] 1/72 KAI KF-21 Boramae Papermodel

Korean Aerospace Industries KF-21 Boramae (Young Hawk/Fighting Hawk) is an ongoing aircraft program aimed at producing advanced multirole fighter for South Korean and (hopefully) Indonesian Airforce. It concluded its first flight on 19 July 2022 and its production scheduled to begin in 2026.

Just the same with the last models, this model was supposed to be released last year (i should REALLY fix my work ethics lol).


my early design, the canopy part is a bit too complicated so i modify it (it's ended up a bit smaller but fit better)

i also tried to draw the stabilizer (based on 4th prototype if i remember) but ended up with alternate scheme (1st and early 3rd prototype)


3rd prototype reference (3rd prototype haven't fly and repainted yet by the time i draw so i used the early scheme and fill the gaps using F-15C camo because it seems close enough)




yes of course i would use the aircraft with more colorful scheme for testbuild


1st prototype (Mediafire)


3rd prototype (Mediafire)

[PREMIUM] 1/72 Mitsubishi A7M2 Reppu Papermodel

 The Mitsubishi A7M Reppū (烈風, "Strong Wind") was designed as the successor to the Imperial Japanese Navy's A6M Zero, with development beginning in 1942. Performance objectives were to achieve superior speed, climb, diving, and armament over the Zero, as well as better maneuverability. To meet these performance specifications its size and weight were significantly greater than its predecessor. The A7M's allied codename was "Sam".

A7M2, revised version of A7M1, powered by a 2,200 hp (1,600 kW) Mitsubishi Ha-43 engine, with a maximum speed of 627 km/h (389 mph). Armament the same as previous model, or four 20 mm (.80 in) Type 99 cannons. The A7M2 was to be the main production aircraft of the A7M series. Three were converted from A7M1. One massproduction type under assembling at the end of the war.

[PREMIUM] 1/72 Daimler Benz DB-Jager Papermodel

This Daimler Benz aircraft project was basically designed around an engine that was being developed at that time. The Daimler Benz Jäger (not its official name) was of a conventional layout with the exception of the propellers location. The engine was mounted in the fuselage nose, with an annular radiator in front. The wings were unswept and exhibited no dihedral and were mounted below the fuselage. The tail was of a conventional design, with its single fin and rudder. Because of the propellers arrangement, a tricycle landing gear had to be used. A single pilot sat in the cockpit that was located towards the rear, just ahead of the contrarotating propellers.

Where the Daimler Benz Jäger differed from most aircraft was its unusual propeller placement. The Daimler Benz DB 609 development began in September 1942, and it was to be an in-line, 16 cylinder injection-type aircraft engine. It was to develop 2700 horsepower, although this could be increased in later version to 3400 horsepower. Allowance was made for fitting a four-stage supercharger, and with its inverted V design, the DB 609 would have been ideal for a large caliber cannon installation, such as the MK 103, MK 108 or MK 212 cannons.

Although a mockup of the forward fuselage was built (as far back as the propeller location), and because of this engine's long development time (actual delivery wasn't schduled to begin until April 1947), the RLM cancelled its development in May 1943. And, along with the DB 609 cancellation, so went the Daimler Benz Jäger project.

Pretty cool (or weird) looking aircraft, just like every other German paper project they got those fictional feeling (but with a slight realism, like something you would see on Ace Combat).



This aircraft livery is loosely based on Walter Nowotny's Me-262



Another livery is also available (based on Erich Hartmann's aircraft ), but i haven't got the time to actually finish it yet.

Both models are available for purchase here:

[FREE] 1/35 Ferret Armoured Car Papermodel

The Ferret armoured car, also commonly called the Ferret scout car, is a British armoured fighting vehicle designed and built for reconnaissance purposes. The Ferret was produced between 1952 and 1971 by the UK company Daimler. It was widely used by regiments in the British Army, as well as the RAF Regiment and Commonwealth countries throughout the period. 

A total of 4,409 Ferrets, including 16 sub-models under various Mark numbers, were manufactured between 1952 and 1962, when production ceased. It is possible to upgrade the engine using the more powerful FB60 version from the Austin Princess 4-Litre-R; this upgrade providing a 55 bhp (41 kW) gain over the standard B60 engine. According to the US Military, 20 national armies were operating the Ferret in 1996.

This model was designed in June but i just bothered to tesbuild it yesterday in an attempt to clear my work backlog (there's three actually, A-26 Invader designed and printed since April or May, and maybe Ki-43 Hayabusa and DB Jager but it was recent design so its priority not that high on my to-do list).





the model includes a two crew, a commander and a drive, i decided not to build them due to time constraint, but you can see it here by Bachtiar M.
