Accurate Miniatures IL-2M3 Stormovik
Probably, the most mass produced aircraft in a characteristic camouflage scheme.
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.
Tamiya 1/48 F4U-2 Bird Cage Corsair
One of the best kits ever produced.
Academy 1/48 Beechcraft V35A Bonanza
The successful Beechcraft Bonanza manufactured since the late 40s found its way to Israel during the Independence War. A South African volunteer that became one of the founders of the young Israeli Air Force flew his Bonanza across Africa [...]
Kit Basing Hasegawa and Trumpeter: 1/32 Messerschmitt Me 262B-1a/u1

Hasegawa 1/48 P-38J Lightning
With all its short falls concerning mostly with fit issues, Hasegawa's Lightning is very convincing.
Dragon 1/48 Mistel
My favorite Dragon kit is the Mistel Fw 190A-8 and Ju 88G-1 combination. The model depict a Mistel captured by the American forces that was used for training. Hence, the Junkers was piloted without the warhead.
Dragon 1/35 Bergepanzer IV
Towards the end of WWII the German deployed several types of recovery vehicles based on tank chassis in service. The purpose of the conversion of tanks to recovery vehicles was to provide protection to maintenance teams in battle zones [...]
Academy 1/48 A-10C Warthog
The best model I have built from Academy's original tooling. The model is complex and highly detailed. Surface texture is excellent. Panel lines are recessed and raised. The fit of parts is very good. Nose area components are un [...]
