I'm from Zadar, Croatia. I took my love for airplanes and helicopters in left hand, my ever present inner child in right hand and PUFF...there came my passion for plastic modeling.
I don't choose my models, they choose me. I see a picture in my head and try to make it happen. Some time ago I saw a video of Frogfoot firing unguided rockets and had to put all my projects aside until I recreated what I saw. Zvezda was [...]
I've been waiting for a while to get my hands on decent Fulcrum kit. In last moments I resisted to get cheaper Revell and Academy kits and decided to save money for GWH. I must say, this kit is worth every penny. Perfect fit, not simple, [...]

After two modernized MiGs from 191st Squadron ((link)) I tried to go back to the past. 22nd Squadron of Croatian Air Force was formed on November 6th 1991 as predecessor of newly formed Croatian Air Force. Together with 1st Fighter [...]
It's big, it doesn't fit into my display case. It's another US airplane. It's another dull, boring grey model. It's well aged... But it's Tomcat...you can't have a model collection without Tomcat!
Few years back a bought an open [...]
Another member of my civilian fleet. Giving a minus to Amodel kit for unclear instructions and very fragile decals, besides that it was fun kit to build.
It's been about 15 months since I quit smoking after 23 years of addiction. Consequently I found hard to spend hours sitting in one place assembling models, so I made a year long break from modeling. Whole this time this bird's been [...]
