Tamiya scale model kits

Tamiya 1:48 Vought F4U-1A Corsair Kit #61070 1998 (new parts added)

Tamiya 1/35 Universal Carrier Mk2. or more commonly know as a "Bren Gun Carrier "

I am mainly into WW1 aircraft but saw this kit and had to buy and build it, let me explain. When I was a young boy growing up on the farm we had a neighbour who always drove his tractor standing up on the footplates. Being inquisitive [...]

Tamiya 1/48 P-51B Mustang

Hot off the bench is the classic Tamiya P-51B that still represents a very nice model. However, I am looking forward to seeing Eduard's' new P-51B release so as to make a comparison between the two. Typical Tamiya, parts fit and the only [...]

1/48 Tamiya Il-2 Shturmovik

Finished the 1/48 Tamiya Il-2 Shturmovik. It's a great kit - Tamiya's excellent kit engineering makes it very fun to build. I added riveting to the airframe with a rivet wheel, used Eduard's photo etch for the seatbelts, and also [...]

Italeri 1/48 Sioux (Luftwaffe)

A very straightforward build that I treated as a mojo restorer...I sometimes find myself going down a rabbit hole with an excessive amount of detailing (most of which can't been seen anyway) when I'm building some kits which sometimes [...]
