Lockheed F-104A Starfighter
An earlier build (early 1990s) and only photographed fairly recently at the Cameron Airport, the Testors 1/48 F-104A Starfighter is a very basic, simple old model. Originally, it was a Hawk release from 1957. I love these birds and [...]
Hawk 1/48 P-51D Mustang

Year of the Cat: 1/48 Testors/Hawk F8F-2 Bearcat
I want to thank Louis Gardner for starting this group build and inviting me to come along with my cat entry. Since I was a little late to the party I picked a kit that I thought would be simple and fast. So presented for your view today is [...]
