Hi All,

I'm looking for aero websites that review and list kits produced in 1/72. Anything similar to On The Way or Henk of Holland sites would be perfect, please reply if you know of any
Thanx in advance
David

The reviews here on Aeroscale are, of course, the best

Having said that, I have just tried to list the reviews by scale, and it won't do it, so you'll unfortunately have to browse by the other methods.

There used to be a site called 72 scale consensus, that tried to list all available kits for each variant of each type, and order the kits by how well rated they were. It also had lists of all the extras available, and all the markings available. I guess it was too big a job to keep updated, and it seems to have disappeared.

At the risk of having Merlin rap my knuckles...
Armorama does have good reviews, but I check Modeling Madness, they have a set of pre-view and review articles. It's presented by molder (preview) or model number (review).
SMAKR Scale Model Aircraft Kit Review is mostly kit reviews, but it's first division is by scale.
HyperScale has reviews but I don't find theirs as easy to navigate as the others.

I'll leave it to you to Google them.

Thank you both for your help I now have a positive place to start googling...
Regards David

Hi Ben

That's odd - it works fine for me. Just select a manufacturer and click on the "scale" column to sort the items. You can use the tabs to filter out all but aircraft if you want.

Mark - consider your knuckles rapped... this is Aeroscale, not Armorama.

All the best

Hi Rowan, yes it sorts by scale if you go in at the start from Manufacturer, but if you go aircraft> prop aircraft> plastic kits then try to click on the scale column heading, it doesn't re-order the list of reviews, the scales are still all mixed up.

if I am not mistaken then Staff_jiùm is workign on a trick or two that will make searching all available information on models a breeze

Hi Ben

Thanks for highlighting that. I'll let Jim know.

All the best

Internet Modeler (http://www.internetmodeler.com/) has plenty of in-the-box reviews (First Looks) and full-build articles in The One True Scale. You can search the past couple of years using the Search function found on the Table of Contents. Unfortunately you'll have to do a specific topic search using Google to look at articles before 2008. We're working on moving the content to the new "system", but since we've been active since 1998, that's a lot of articles.

Ouch! Well I guess I earned that one.

Matt, thanks for the Internet Modeler reminder.

Hi Ben

Sorry - I forgot to ask Jim about this until last night. Anyway, he's got straight onto the case and the column sort functions work now.

All the best

Rowan
