Models have been along periodically since childhood.
Over the years, I built close to 1000 models.
I want to share my excitement from this great hobby with the images presented here.
A model representing one of the late development of Kfir. Wingman Models issued three variants of the Kfir. The reconnaissance version of the Kfir is a challenging model due to the nature of the plastic mold, which is Kinetic's Kfir,
Hasegawa's old mold still produces an attractive looking Sabre without build complications.
A great kit by Meng. Although complex, the fit of parts is excellent and the detailing is exquisite. It is among the few military vehicles where the weathering patterns can be borrowed from civilian equivalents, thus no need to use [...]
This kit was also released by Revell and ProModeler. Its origins relate to Trimaster/Dragon models. Like other kits in the series, this model is highly detailed but has many fit problems that complicate the build.
The aircraft represented [...]
A very well executed plastic kit by Hobbyboss. The model is highly detailed and the fit of parts is very good. Yet, the building process is challenging due to the complexity and delicacy of components, particularly the main landing gear [...]
The unique Zero Trainer is well depicted by Hasegawa. These aircraft had extensive yellow to orange color coverage over the lower surfaces and sometimes also the upper.
Accidents happen. These are the remains of a 20mm Flak gun on the platform of a Sd.Kfz. 7 half track. It was detached from the platform on route to the "photo studio." I have the habit of not gluing sub-assemblies that settle in [...]
Focke wulf 190A aircraft modified to tackle the Flying Fortresses bomber streams in the daylight were named "Sturmbock" (Rammjäger) suggesting ramming capabilities during attack.
One of the counter Fortresses measures was a back [...]
Although not their finest model ever produced. Accurate Miniature's Stormovik depicts well the outlines of perhaps, the most mass produced aircraft ever. Ergo, I chose to build it in a nearly completed factory condition. Hence, it is [...]
The mighty 88 is well depicted in AFV Club's model. It is a complex and a highly detailed kit that does not need a much building effort to look like the real gun.
