I am a life-long modeler of mainly planes, tanks, and trains, but also a trained artist with a degree in sculpture, former Army officer, current designer, and proud parent of a dinosaur modeler.
It's been awhile since I've posted anything but I thought I'd share this years builds:
1/72 Hasegawa F-16D Have Glass 148th FW Minnesota ANG
1/72 Hasegawa F-15EX Eglin AFB
1/72 Hobbyboss TA-7C
1/48 Tamiya F-16 ADF (the Block 30 kit with a [...]
Thought I would post my 2021 builds including a couple of misses (learning opportunities as a wise one would say). The "lazy" part of the title is that I build almost all my aircraft in flight but managed to only build one stand [...]
Despite it all it was a productive year although I've neglected sharing here for a while. And I built all things that fly even though I hadn't planned it that way. Here they are:
Dream Model's 1/72 AH-1Z
Hasegawa 1/48 P-40E Aleutian [...]
I haven't been on here in forever but thought I'd share my year...even though my photos did not turn out so great. All 1/72 aircraft, 1/35 armor, with most of my planes still awaiting stands. Here's to 2020-year of the new camera!) [...]
Howdy! So this is Hobbycraft’s 1/72 Otter DHC-3 kit with a Khee Kha Art Vazar Turbo-Otter resin conversion, Alliance Modelworks prop blur, and Arctic Decals Harbour Air decals (Harbour Air flies out of Victoria Harbor, British [...]
Greetings all! I built Trumpeter’s 1/35th scale US Coast Guard HH-65 kit upgrading it into a MH-65D from Coast Guard Station Kodiak, Alaska. I have a love/hate relationship with Trumpeter-I love that they are doing subjects that no one [...]
This is Hobbyboss's 1/35 RSOV (Ranger Special Operations Vehicle) used by the US Army 75th Ranger Regiment. I added Black Dogs figure and upgrade set which adds a lot of life to it. I have a good friend that got to test and help pick [...]
My final winter build of the year since it's spring (even if we got a foot of snow here in Alaska today) -Tamiya's 1/35 Type 90. I think this is a pretty well known subject from a few years ago, a Type 90 on winter maneuvers in Japan with [...]
Another Abrams, this time I built Tamiya's 1/35th M1A2 Operation Iraqi Freedom kit into a USMC M1A1 in Norway for Exercise Reindeer II in 2016. Tamiya includes the Marine M1A1 as an option in this boxing. I added a bustle rack extension [...]
Or maybe I should have titles this one "None Shall Pass". This being my third post here at iModeler, you may notice a pattern with my builds. Anyway, this is Dragon's M1A2 SEP kit converted into an AUS M1A1 with an Arms Corps [...]
