1/72 Hasegawa P-51K
My first build of 2021 is complete. This is the 1/72 Hasegawa P-51K. Although the Hasegawa kit is getting a bit long in the tooth, I think it still builds into a nice representation of a Mustang. I added CMK resin wheels, Quickboost resin [...]

1/48 JU-87R-2 Stuka, Hubert Polz’s desert snake, 6./St.G 2, 1941, Tmimi, Libya

There are only a few (4, I believe) photo's of this aircraft, so a lot of the scheme is speculative (even the color of the snake is [...]
