Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
I won't go into detail on the genesis of the B-58; however, it was an aircraft that was ahead of it's time. As a kid growing up in the 50's and coming of age in the late '60's, it was not uncommon during those halcyon days to be suddenly [...]
The Last of the many, Spitfire Mk.22, to me the most pleasing to the eye. I knew this kit existed but didn't realize it wasn't being produced any more. I got this off ebay at a reasonable price. Another 'new' tool Airfix gem of a kit. [...]

AFV Club is well-known for their excellent armor kits, so I was pleased to find that AFV Club now is making some aircraft kits, too. AFV Club has released kits of the early U-2 series, like the kind flown by Francis Powers, during his [...]
Kinetic 1/48, 2 kits in 1 package. Build straight from the box using kit decals too. Opted for the French version. No particular issues except a fiddly nose wheel gear assembly and those photo etched arms for control surfaces which I kept [...]
