Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
With some modelling projects, it is quite clear what motivated you to build them. In the case of the rare DC-10 modification presented here, I can easily identify three factors that I would like to present below.
Fascination number one: [...]
The Bristol Beaufort was a torpedo bomber developed from experience gained from the earlier Bristol Blenheim light bomber. It entered service with the RAF in 1940, but by mid-1942 Beaufort units were transferred to the Mediterranean and [...]
I got this kit as a practice run for Academy's B-50D with the idea if I was going to bungle something it would be something that was easy to replace. No one glaring problem presented itself thru the build; if I was to whine about something [...]
Tamiya's 1972 mold shows its age. This 1/48th scale kit provides basic cockpit components and sports minimal engraved panel lines. Nonetheless, the assembled model has the characteristics of the Hayate (Frank) including the purposeful look [...]

Welcome to the insanity. This is the part where someone will point out my paint job is still wrong. It is inevitable at this point.
The kit started out as a blithely [...]
Hi everyone, here is my Tamiya, 1/48, IAF, F-35A.
One of the best kits of all times, IMHO.
Enjoy!
Conversion from the Eduard SSW D.III kit. Made completely new wings, rudder and struts by casting from resin and sanding adjusted to the desired shape. I shortened the height rudder according to the drawing and modified it by grinding. [...]
Greetings all,
An Easter holidays completion from me - Revell's 1/32nd scale Hawker Hunter FGA.9 more or less OOB, other than some aftermarket decals from AeroMaster and some home-made FOD guards. My model represents a machine based at RAF [...]
The Fokker D11 was designed to take over from the Fokker E1, E11 & E111 monoplanes. It even utilised the rear fuselage and tailplane of the Eindecker and used wing warping for lateral control as did the monoplanes. Fitted with a 100hp [...]
The Blenheim was a victim of the rapid pace of aircraft development during the latter half of the 1930s. when it first took to the air as a light bomber in 1935 it was faster than the biplane fighters of the day, but by the beginning of [...]
