Into all things 1/48 WW1 and WW2. Aircraft, dios, armour etc. favourite topics are, Luftwaffe, RAAF , Dutch airforce, BoB, and anything that flies from around 1914-1946 essentially. đ
Recently started WW1 subjects. All of 2021. Can't see myself doing anything else for a while, unless more WW2 British bombers get released. Keeping an eye on that Beaufort release. LOL. 2023 now and I'm now getting into some 1/48 afv. And that Beaufort was one of my favourite builds of 2022.

1/48 Hasegawa Mitsubishi F1M2 "Pete" Rekata Bay, Santa Isabel Island of the Soloman Islsnds. 1944. Weather beaten and eventually abandoned along with many Japanese types, parts of some of which can still be found there today, if [...]
A nice simple build. Tamiya 1/48 Fw190 A-3. Flown by unknown pilot 7/JG2, Theville, France. 6 June 1942.
Decals were made up from spares. I just wanted to do a fast build or 2 before embarking on something pretty full on around Jan 24. [...]
Just completed my Airfix Avro Anson Mk1 6013, formerly RAF 9943. Borden Ontorio using Iliad decals.
The interior was the most enjoyable part of the build for me. I had some fit issues, but it may have been my fault. Not sure tbh.
But glad [...]
Just completed today. Revell 1/24 1965 Ford Mustang 2x2 Flashback (whatever that means lol). Built for a very dear friend and band mate, because he loves cars. I don't do cars so am a novice but I learned alot from doing this and watching [...]
Tamiya Focke Wulf Fw190F-9 Luftflotte 4, May 1945. Found abandoned in Neubiberg, Germany. As is often the case, there is much debate on what colours it was painted. So I went with the later war colours of Rlm 76, 75,83 and a splash of 81 [...]

This is a completely new thing for me and was heaps of fun. My good friend (and band mate) Shaun, restored his 1953 Ford Pick-up, in a restoration that took several years. He found an old rusted F250 in the U.S. and got it sent over here. [...]

ICM Junkers Ju88C-6 daytime fighter of 14./KG40 Bordeaux France 1942-43. I painted it in what I think is accurate based on research. Colours of Rlm74/76/77. Who can say for sure but I hope it's close.
Another great ICM release.
Thank you [...]
