I am an avid builder of anything BIG...like a Gato sub, or a Type 9 u-boot, or aircraft in 1/32 scale! I mainly specialize in WW2 aircraft but Wingnut Wings have stolen my soul ( WW1 in the air was a passion of my dad's ). I still dabble in 1/48th and 1/72 subjects when the mood strikes though.

Republic P-47D "I Wanted Wings/ Stalag Luft III/ Button Nose" in 1/32nd Scale

Fw 190A-8 II./JG 301 1945

After seeing so many excellent models on this site, I have decided to add a few of my own humble efforts to this site. In the last decade kit makers have been redoing my favorite aircraft in larger scales so when Hasegawa released their [...]
