Revell 1/32 Mosquito
Interested to see what could be done with this kit without spending a fortune. Actually very impressed! PRU model with the fuselage camera in the wrong place (sorry)! Eduard wheels (for Tamiya) were the only extras. When you open the box [...]
Ventura!
This is my version of the great Revell Lockheed PV-1 Ventura, the plane that replaced the Hudson. Apparently much reviled by the RAF (unmmaneuverable and under-armed) , it was put to wide use by the USAAF (amongst others). This is BuNo [...]
USS Essex (CVS-9) – Revell 1/530 Resurrection Build
It took three days short of a year, but I am finally calling my resurrection build of a 1980 Revell 1/530 Essex-clas angled deck carrier done. (Build log at (link) )
The model started out as a Bon Homme Richard (CV-31) that I built in [...]
Stearman PT-17
Here’s my Revell Stearman PT-17. This was the first time I tried rigging with micro tubing and ring anchors. It was a tedious process but, it sure looks good when done. Better than cleaning up and painting tank bogie wheels! ? I think I [...]
Revell 1/72 DHC-6 Twin Otter
Hi There,

1/48 Revell Mi-24D HIND Attack Helicopter
This build was the Revell 1/48 Mi-24D Hind attack helicopter that I used Caracal Decals for the Polish Air Force scheme. This kit was detailed with Master model gun and DUAS probe as well as Pavla Models resin cockpit set. This was a fun [...]

This is my project to save an old and broken Airbus A 340 model. Model kit is from Revell in 1:144 scale. After the repair, the model will be part of a new diorama. The diorama will show the wreck of an Airbus A 340 aircraft at the [...]
WWII Navy flight trainers
I'm nearing the end of my Navy dive bomber collecting spree, having just received a Vac Wings BT-1 in the mail, so I turned my attention to Navy trainers for a bit before starting that project. I was pleased to find the following kits [...]
1/72 Yakovlev Yak-3 Revell
This is a 1/72 scale Yakovlev Yak-3 by Revell in the colours of a machine from 18. GIAP, East Prussia, 1945.
This was a pretty straight-forward build OOB. Everything fit together pretty nicely. I was well impressed with the full colour, [...]
A tribute to my Father-in-Law Republic F-84E Thunderjet, Korea 1952
My father-in-law, Jack Terhune of Springfield, Missouri, was a U.S. Air Force veteran. He joined in March of 1950, after turning down several scholarships to play college football. He always said he joined to see the world and never got [...]
