Howdy,
I build almost anything that piques my interest. I build what I like, as I like.
1/48 Monogram Bf-109E
The title says Bf-109E, but when this kit was relleased, the box said “Me-109-E”. Built this one from a white box kit. Added a Hobbycraft cockpit and wheels. Decals from a Sky Models sheet for Hans Troitzsch of 6/JG77.

This one used an engine front, cowling, wheels, landing [...]

Before Eduard, Hasegawa,Fujimi and Tamiya began releasing their great kits of the Bf-109G-6, there was Otaki. Recessed panel lines and rivets, enclosed wheel wells and, while not accurate, cockpits.
Here’s a couple I have built long [...]
My favorite Monogram model, the 1/48 P-51B
Growing up, the 1/48 Monogram P-51B was my favorite model kit ( their P-47’s are a close second). Here are a few I’ve done over the years.
First up, P-51B, S/Ldr Eugeniusz „Dziubek“ Horbaczewski, No. 315 (Polish) Squadron. Decals [...]
1/48 Otaki P-51D
