Messerschmitt Bf-109G-6 JG 300 Hobbycraft 1/48

Oldie but goodie...

Nakajima Type 11, Early production (Irving), Tamiya 1/48

Okay, I must admit I had forgotten what Tamiya stands for. Abundance of detail, no flash, perfect fit (I didn't use any glue for the landing gear...). I used Eduard's p.e. set, a value for money set that provides lots of extra details. I [...]

F-104G Starfighter

Hello again colleagues. I bring you a kit that I really wanted to do. It's the Hasegawa F-104, a fabulous kit, no problem. I recommend it 100%. I hope you like the result.

P-47D, Academy 1/48, 313th FS/ 50th FG, Philip Savides

Here is my last built. The Academy kit was a surprise for me. Very nice and easy kit. I used LM decals. As usual every comment is welcome! Link with the details for Philip Savides: (link)
