Unveiled to the public in 1996, Honda's CBR 1100XX "Super Blackbird" has brought the leading edge of motorcycle technology to a new height. Even though it provides and awesome 165 horsepower output and a top speed exceeding 300km/h, this super sport bike is not just about muscle. Its sleek, bullet-nosed wedge shape styling was the result of the extensive wind tunnel testing. This distinctive "piggy-back" combination headlights allow the Super Blackbird to have an extremely narrow frontal aspect. The cowling, with purposefully sculptured air intakes and outlets, contribute to achieve better aerodynamics, whilst providing comfort and wind protection for the rider. At the heart of the Super Blackbird lies the 1,137cc, liquid cooled inline four cylinder engine which is compact and light in weight. By incorporating a dual-shaft balancer system, this powerful unit revs up very smoothly, and annoying secondary vibration is virtually eliminated. Thanks to the low vibration, the engine is directly bolted to the dual-spar, triple box section aluminum frame without using rubber mounts, obtaining even further overall rigidity. The entire lightness, and excellent suspension system enable it to have outstanding agility and maneuverability. Positive stopping power is obtained through Honda's Dual-Combined Brake System, which actuates the front and rear brakes by either pulling the hand lever or pressing the foot pedal. The CBR 1100XX Super Blackbird has undoubtedly set new standards in every aspect of large displacement sports motorcycles.
Tamiya acrylic paints are made from water-soluble acrylic resins and are excellent for either brush painting or air-brushing. These paints can be used on styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, plus all of the common model plastics. The paint covers well, flows smoothly, and can be blended easily. Prior to curing, paint can be washed away with plain water.
When airbrushing make sure to use any of the following Tamiya thinners: 81020, 81030, 81040, 81520, 87077.
X designated colours have a glossy finish while XF designated colours are flat finish.
The paint can be thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya X-20A Acrylic thinner.
The paint can be also thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner. Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner will yield faster drying results and a harder finish.
For better paint brushing results use Tamiya Paint Retarder (87114) for a smoother brushstroke free finish.
The twin-engine Douglas DC-3 was definitely one of the most famous transport aircraft of aviation history thanks to its reliability, flexibility and service life. During the Second World War it was developed a version dedicated to military duties: the Douglas C-47 Skytrain. Produced in large numbers by American production plants, was used extensively by the Allies on all fronts. In particular, the C-47s received by British Royal Air Force and Commonwealth Air Forces took the name “Dakota” and they were used for logistic, tactical transports, launch of paratroopers and medical evacuation. Thanks to its two Pratt & Whitney 1,200 HP engines the “Dakota” was able to reach a top speed of 360 Km/h. It had a pay-load of 2,500 Kg or a capacity of 28 troops.

Bf 109F was introduced in 1941 and became instantly the best liked variant of this fighter by its pilots for combat performance. Powered by a DB 601H engine (1200 hp), the aircraft reached 537 km / h at the sea level. This speed and its excellent climbing rate at low altitude, "Friedrich", as a the new Messerschmitt modification was called, was superior to most enemy fighters of that period.

The King Tiger was the heaviest production tank of World War 2. With its powerful long barreled 88mm gun it was capable of destroying a Sherman tank from a 3,500 m distance. The King Tigers were issued to the army in February, 1944, and were first used in combat already in May, in battles near Minsk. Two companies equipped with these formidable machines participated in the Battle of Normandy, during the D-Day. The King Tiger operated by the experienced crew was the most dangerous enemy for any tank.

1/72 Scale unassembled plastic model kit requiring Paint and Glue to complete
The Vought Corporation developed the F8U Crusader as the Navy's first supersonic fighter (and the world's second supersonic fighter), using the same J57 engine as the F-100 Super Sabre (the first supersonic fighter). First flown in 1955, the F8U employed a unique approach to achieving maximum lift at low airspeeds without the corresponding nose-high attitude - the variable incidence wing. The wing would pop up for take-off and landing, and then lock down into place for normal flight. Academy has reissued their nice 1/72 F-8E Crusader kit with new markings options. The kit is molded in light gray styrene and presented on four trees, plus a single tree of clear parts
In ancient times Athens was built around the hill of the Acropolis, on a plain bordered by two small rivers, the Eridanus in the north and the Ilisos in the south. Today the area is only dominated by the Parthenon.
The great temple, which Pericles entrusted to the care of the architects Ictinus and Callicrates and to the artistic supervision of Phidias, was built between 447 and 432 B.C. to replace the previous archaic building, called Hekatòmpedon, which literally means “one hundred feet long”. Built in pentelic marble in Doric style, the Parthenon was internally divided into two main rooms: the cell, with the statue of Athena
Partenos (“the Virgin”), made by Phidias in gold and ivory and high over 12 metres; on the back, the real Parthenon, a colonnaded hall reserved to the young virgins engaged in the worship of the goddess. The decoration of the friezes, which was assigned to Pidias, the greatest sculptor of the time, contributed to make the temple even more beautiful temple, making it a formidable vehicle of complex ideological messages.
These cans of spray paint are extremely useful for painting large surfaces. The paint is a synthetic lacquer that cures in a short period of time. Each can contains 100ml of paint, which is enough to fully cover 2 or 3, 1/24 scale sized car bodies.
Tamiya spray paints are not affected by acrylic or enamel paints. Therefore following the painting of the entire assembly, details can be added or picked out using enamel and/or acrylic paints.
Enamel paints are used for brush or spray painting, and can be applied to almost any surface of wood, metal or plastic.Each bottle contains 10ml of paint.
The T-62 tank has many similarities to the T54/55, both in external shape and mechanism. It made its first official appearance in the victory parade to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the victory over Germany on May 9th 1965.
In 1998, the Suzuki Hayabusa 1300 (GSX1300R) was quite the sensation
during its debut at the "INTERMOTO 98" show in Germany. The Hayabusa is
equipped with a 175hp in line 4-cylinder 4 DOHC valve water-cooled
engine. To ensure good airflow to the ram air duct, a unique cowling
design with vertically positioned twin headlights was adopted. The
Hayabusa also realizes quick and powerful acceleration and performs
excellent curving as well as effective braking. For expert and average
level riders alike the cutting-edge Suzuki Hayabusa 1300 has proven to
be rider friendly, and developed around the concept of the "ultimate
sports bike" continues to delight riders all over the world.
The German heavy tank 'Tiger' had been manufactured during only two years - since August of 1942 till August 1944, but it stayed unforgettable in the story of the World War II. Almost impenetrable front armor in combination with excellent sight and powerful long range 88mm gun KwK 36 made 'Tiger' the most dangerous opponent when fighting at long distance, because enemy's tanks were not able to fire effectively at such range.

Features:
- These enamel paints are ideal for highlighting panel lines and other details to give your model a more realistic depth. The paint has been pre-diluted into the
ideal viscosity and can be easily applied into crevasses such as panel lines with the brush on the bottle cap. Once dried, any excess may be cleaned up by using an enamel thinner.
Sanding parts and scale models is necessary so that the result of the
finishes is perfect. The set of 3 extra fine sandpaper sheets from
Artesania Latina -1200, 1500 & 2000- is used to eliminate any
excess, burr or imperfection from the wood, plastic and other materials
of your miniature or any other craft. Rough down to make surfaces
smoother!
