Hello, fellow modelers and readers. I want to share some
photographs of models exposed at the XIII Master Hobby Show that took place in Caracas, Venezuela,
on June 11 and 12, 2011. The Master Hobby Show is an annual event organized by
the Club de Modelismo (Modelers Club) 2000. I’ll show the photographs in several
articles.

In this article I’ll focus in models of propeller-driven
military aircraft. As the theme of the open category this year was “Modeling
France,” there were many models of french-made
airplanes, and also models of non-french-made
airplanes in french markings. Among the second group was
a Spitfire V with clipped wings in desert camouflage and dressed with yellow
tail and shark mouth, what an eye-catcher model it was! Another outstanding
model was a huge 1/72 Northrop YB-35 Flying Wing with a splendid natural metal
finish.

As always, there were many WWII Luftwaffe aircraft, like
a tiny but very well detailed 1/144 Eduard Ju-52, several Messerschmitt and Focke-Wulf fighters, and the strange-looking Blohm und Voss fighter of asymmetric design. There were relatively
few airplanes from the USA
and the british Commonwealth.
I finished my photographic sequence with one of a cardboard model from a Russian
giant dirigible.
