Hi folks!
For those of you who don't know me, I'm from Newcastle upon Tyne and have been an iModeler member since 2013.

Ducati Desmosedici RR

Sea Harrier Fa.2

Hi folks, it has been a while! I'm typing this on a boat, currently off the coast of Senegal... if that explains why I haven't posted a lot of articles recently. This is the Kinetic 1/48 sea harrier 2 kit, with the Eduard cockpit set, [...]

Mayflower

Hi folks! It's been a while! Unfortunately having to work for a living is being an inconvenience. This is the Revell 1/72 Mayflower kit from back in the 16th century, 120 years before the actual Mayflower set sail. Or at least that's how [...]
