17- 1/24 Monogram Ferarri 512 TR

My 512 TR is complete, the first road car I've done and I was worried about the paint and how to get that on but it turned out well. I added some engine wiring and some bits and pieces to it to make it my own. I really need to figure out [...]

16 - Tamiya 1/12 Yamaha Virago

What a enjoyable build, my first motorcycle and I'll definitely do more - Bikes are so much fun. Didn't really like the red and gold scheme of the kit so decided to do a Copper, Chrome and black version. I also wanted to play around with [...]

15 - Revell1/112 X-Wing Fighter

I was given this little Star Wars kit and decided to do it as a fun build, which it really was. I decided to try my own scheme and give it a bare metal finish, I wanted to have different metal tones so ended up masking and mixing different [...]

14 - Tamiya 1/24 Mazda 787b

I was given this kit semi- built and really loved completing it, I'd love to get a new one and start from scratch as it was a really nice kit, the car turned out beautifully. Only had one issue with it where half of a decal for no reason I [...]

13 - Academy 1/48 AH-61D Longbow Apache

This kit was a real love/hate situation. I love the Apache and really wanted to extend myself and try new things and put a lot of effort into finishing it off well. The hate part comes around in the bad fit and engineering of this [...]

12 - Matchbox 1/72 Aermacchi G.91Y

The first of I hope a lot of Italian military subjects. The G.91 is a really beautiful plane and if it weren't for politics would have been widely utilised throughout Europe and even USA. When looking through references I found 1 photo of [...]

11 - Academy 1/48 Hughes 500dIsreali Scheme

A nice quick and quite simple build that I put some extra effort into - I wanted to do an Israeli scheme but didn't have the decals to so I made a mask of the Yellow V with tape and got a friend to cut a mask of the Israeli roundels for [...]

10 - AMT - Anakin's Podracer

What an incredibly fun kit to build, from the subject to the fit and finish I had a ton of fun. The details are great and the figure was amazing to paint, a few gaps here and there on the pod but nothing that was too tough to fix up. The [...]

9 – Testors OV-10A Bronco

I found one of my favourite airplanes and in 48th scale there aren't many options on it. A really fun kit but very little detail so had to create my own, mostly in the cockpit, I added ejector levers, wiring, fuselage ribbing, some boxes, [...]

8 - Condor Focke Wulf FW-189

This was built for my first every group build. The theme was Winter Wonderland (had to be a military build), and when I saw this camo on here I really wanted to try it. The idea, have this FW-189 bursting out of a storm cloud. The build [...]
