	Fokker D.I / Dr.I Early Aces Review by DC Shoemaker (Hobbycraft 1/48)
		Hobbycraft began with the first-class Nieuport 17 (in several versions, identical but for the decals) and followed with two SPAD XIII kits, again identical but for markings.
		Hobbycraft also provides a telescopic sight (which MvR may or may not have used.) Engine detail is satisfactory, and the same two propeller types as in the Roden kit are provided.
		Hobbycraft’s 1/32 scale Fokker Dr.I is not in quite the same league as their SPAD XIII, but at $19.95 is still good value for money.

	HOBBYCRAFT 109s
		Hi, I’m Tony Hodun, and this is table of 1/48 Hobbycraft Bf109 kit listings I’ve developed to aid you as a modeler or collector (or both) in finding the kit you want to build the version you want, or to fill the gaps in your collection.
		Hobbycraft’s early decals were frankly poor (I call these ”old”), but since the early 90s they have included excellent decals in their kits (I call these “new”).
		Hobbycraft provides two types, one where the ports are recesses in the cowl, the other where the ports are actually holes in the cowl; not sure why they did this.

	Hobbycraft 1/72 C-7A Caribou (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Hobbycraft gives you a fairly good instrument panel, but the rest of the cockpit is quite spartan, missing important details like the crew access door to the cargo bay.
		Hobbycraft does this by an application of two decals: the first decal is a red mesh that represents the cargo netting and the second is a flat fl decal that hides the interior.
		Hobbycraft’s two radial engines have adequate surface detail and were carefully painted, washed and dry-brushed, only to find them almost disappear deep within their nacelles.

	Hobbycraft Me109
		Hobbycraft did a nice job in providing nicely detailed cockpit sidewalls as separate parts, this makes it a lot easer to use a replacement resin interior.
		Hobbycraft provided posable full span flaps, witch were applied after the wing assembly was complete.
		Hobbycraft provides the the bulges as separate pieces that must be added.

	A-36 Apache / P-51 / P-51A Preview (Hobbycraft 1/32)
		I was surprised and pleased to see test shots of the sprues from Hobbycraft's forthcoming A-36 Apache / P-51 / P-51A Mustang kits.
		Please keep in mind that these are test shots which may change in detail and finish when the kits are actually released, however, first impressions are very favourable.
		Hobbycraft has thankfully resisted the temptation of using a single set of wings for all variants.

	ebizQ - HobbyCraft Takes PROTEUS Seriously
		HobbyCraft, Europe’s first arts and crafts superstore retail chain, is investing in a PROTEUS warehouse management system to improve stock turn, maintain high levels of stock availability and create the IT infrastructure required to support a tripling of retail outlets, PROTEUS says.
		Launched in 1995, HobbyCraft is unique in the arts and crafts business, having successfully pioneered the superstore concept in a marketplace usually served by smaller shops in secondary locations.
		HobbyCraft aims to stock everything under one roof, carrying around 30,000 products in a sales area equivalent to four tennis courts.

		HobbyCraft is Europe"s first and the UK"s largest chain of dedicated Arts and Crafts Superstores.
		In a market traditionally serviced by small specialist shops, HobbyCraft is the first national retailer to cater for more than 250 different activities all under one roof.
		With an ever increasing, diverse and highly seasonal range of 35,000 arts and crafts products HobbyCraft was faced with the challenge of managing the complex problem of delivering stock to their retail stores ‘just in time’.

	Messerschmitt Bf 109B-2 by Jean Gratton (HobbyCraft 1/48)
		The problems comes from the fact that HobbyCraft, in an effort to produce all these variants from the same basic moulds, have overlooked the specific details of each type.
		Hobbycraft unfortunately molded this just the same as their later variant.
		I did make some additions but most of the changes made are well within the average modeller’s range when it comes to filling and adding panel lines or, even for the matter, making improvements to a cockpit.

	Hobbycraft 1/48 A-4C Skyhawk
		Hobbycraft jumped into the fray with four Skyhawks - the A-4C (which can also be built as an A-4B), an Israeli A-4E (with the extended IR-suppression tailpipe), a Falklands A-4B, and an Aggressor A-4E/F. These were great, as nobody had produced an injection-molded 1/48 kit of the A-4B/C to date.
		The problem that Hobbycraft had with announcing their Skyhawk intentions so early before release was that the news gave Hasegawa the opportunity to produce an A-4E of their own in 1/48 and announce plans for an A-4B/C in the next year or so.
		While not up to the current standards of Hasegawa, the Hobbycraft kit is easily equal or better than the Monogram Skyhawk kit, which has long been the standard for this subject in 1/48.The suggested retail price is also significantly less than the Japanese offering, so the choice is yours.

	Hobbycraft 1:48 F8F-1b "Vietnam Bearcat"
		Hobbycraft have even taken care of the INTERIOR color - once you apply them, look at the inside.
		Second, Hobbycraft have broken up the (extensive) markings sheet - there are no stencils, unfortunately (though these aircraft, in the case of the Royal Thai Air Force example I built, were transferred from the French.) This takes care of most registration problems.
		They aren't sure if the markings are white or yellow, so Hobbycraft have supplied a band and nose numbers of both colors.

	1/48 Hobbycraft A4Q Skyhawk by Darius Aibara (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Hobbycraft kits are reasonably detailed but usually have average decals and are moulded in a quite brittle plastic that needs careful cutting and sanding.
		Hobbycraft went against type and actually included a decent decal sheet (including bonus RSAF Skyhawk markings).
		Humbrol paints were brush applied and light weathering was achieved using a heavily thinned wash of brown/fl enamel applied over a couple of coats of Johnson's Clear varnish to prevent the thinners from stripping the main paint coat!

	Hobbycraft 1/48 Bf-109E-1 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		As for the Hobbycraft kit, it is about four years old so one of the earlier tries.
		The Hobbycraft decals were tossed as they are too flat and too brittle.
		While the Hobbycraft version is not up to the standards of Hasegawa's 109E-3, it is also much less expensive, and an easy build, to boot.

	Brazilian P-36 / Hawk 75 (Hobbycraft 1:48)
		And at Pearl Harbor, P-36s that had been relegated to gunnery training duty, armed with only one.30 caliber machine gun, were among the only US aircraft to take off and fight the Japanese, scoring several victories.
		This is one of the Hobbycraft kits, namely the P-36 "Pearl Harbor Defender." I've finished this in both a temporary scheme from the 1939 Cleveland Air Races, and later repainted it to represent a Hawk 75 serving with the Finnish air force.
		It's got a somewhat weak interior (there are aftermarket sets for this, and in a pinch you could use one for an early P-40.) It gives no color information for the interior - and given the era these were built in, this is somewhat of a liability.

	Re: Hobbycraft 1/48 Do-17Z - FineScale.com Forums
		The kit is definitely a Hobbycraft "original" and is not a particularly good model, to be honest.
		Hobbycraft has released the Do-17Z with "new-tooling" or "re-tooling" recently but most people say it is the same old kit with much better and more comprehensive decals.
		Brian, The kit is definitely a Hobbycraft "original" and is not a particularly good model, to be honest.

	'O' Scale Model Streetcars by Western Hobbycraft
		The model of #357 is made by Western Hobbycraft and is available in two-rail and three-rail (Lionel-compatible) versions in a variety of roadnames besides Johnstown Traction.
		They may seem to be a bit pricey, but you'll pay a LOT more for 2-rail O scale brass streetcars with an equal level of detail and nowhere near the level of readiness for service.
		Side view of the Western Hobbycraft model with an almost-side view of the full-size JTC 357 in the background.

	P-40F Warhawk by Bob Aikens (Hobbycraft 1/48)
		The box art for the packaging of this kit is particularly striking - it combines a hight degree of realism with a forced perspective that seems just right in depicting the whirling flux of an air combat over the Western desert.
		I determined at once that this was not going to be a sow's ear-silk purse type of thing- it had to be a stick-to-the-basics: get a good paint job and a neat finish approach.
		And as in all of the recent HobbyCraft releases you will find the decal sheet to be superb.

		Academy have also bought a whole heap of Hobbycraft molds and the F-89 series is now being released under their own brand, but of course are the Hobbycraft kits through and through!
		This was my second foray into a Hobbycraft kit and I must say that I was quite impressed with it and would certainly recommend it to other modellers.
		Academy are due to release this kit - they have already released their reboxing of the Hobbycraft F-89J, so the subject should be available somewhere on the Net in one of these boxing forms.

	A-4C Argentine Skyhawk by Pablo Calcaterra (Hobbycraft 1/48) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Returning to the history of C-318, the plane flown by Isaacs on May 30th, survived the war and kept giving service in the AAF until 1988 when it was destroyed in an accident after a mechanical failure forced the pilot to eject from the plane.
		After waiting for so many years for a 1/48th Charlie to be issued by the kit manufacturers, it was a dissapointment to see Hobbycraft’s offering.
		Now the pictures of the cockpit were taken and finally the canopy was glued in the open position in order to try to “hide” the problems with the general shape of this part in the HC kit.

	Hobbycraft 1/144 Sukhoi Su-22m
		Hobbycraft could really help modelers if it would include some better instructions than the vague puzzle on the back of the kit box.
		By this scale, the wing fences should be razor-thin, but I left them as is. A good set of photo-etch would do wonders here.
		These objects are far too thick, but again I left them as is. They could easily be replaced with sheet styrene in all fairness, but I think Hobbycraft could at least mold these as thin as the nose gear doors.

	A-4Q Argentinean Skyhawk by Fabian Nevarez (Hobbycraft 1/48) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Hobbycraft's 1/48 scale Skyhawk is available online from Squadron.com
		The model here is the 1/48 Hobbycraft A-4B kit that I built to resemble an Argentinean Navy A-4Q which has no other external differences with the "B" variant except for the after cockpit blade antenna, being larger and of square shape, so no further modifications were needed to do to the original model.
		The kit was built out of the box, and the only addition I did was the Mk-82 Snakeye bombs from the Hasegawa Weapons Set instead of using the regular Mk-82s included in the kit.

		Some alterations to Hobbycraft's fuselage was required before the installation of the gun deck and windscreen.
