1/48 ICM B-26 Marauder

Here is my 1/48 ICM B-26 Marauder. I did a full review for IPMS USA: (link) A decent kit with nice modern tooling over the older Monogram kit. IT is NOT w/o its faults. The fuselage halves fit are a bit tricky esp. if one wants to [...]

1/25 MPC 1932 Chrysler

I built this a while back for a customer. IT is a 1/25 MPC Chrysler 1932. THE paint was a custom color from MCW and it was clear coated with Tamiya. Otherwise pretty much built from box. Decent kit but needs to treated like limited [...]

P-35 & its relation to te RE 2000

This was a nice little build from Special Hobby and it seemed appropriate after the RE 2000. These two airframes share a lot in common Steve

1/72 Italeri RE. 2000

This is decent little kit if a bit basic. I added some details [cockpit area] from a spare SH kit I had lying about. OTherwise pretty much OOB. I used the kit decals-pretty good and I employed the very nice MRP Reggnia Aeronautica [...]

1/72 ICM OV-10D

This is my IPMS review of the ICM 1/72 OV-10D Gulf War version. This was a nice build but you can read my particulars at the IPMS USA Review: (link) IT is nicely detailed but has few things to watch out for; nose weight to avoid tail [...]

1/72 OV-10A Bronco 'Vietnam'

I was working on this simultaneously while working on the Brazilian Skyhawk. This one will be interesting to compare to the 1/72 ICM kit which I am currently reviewing right now in a build for IPMS USA...albeit I am building the OV-10D [...]

1/48 Brazilian A-4M Skyhawk VF-1 FAlcoes

This is the venerable Hasegawa A-4M in Brazilian Navy markings. I also modified a Monogram 1/48 figure as a pilot-pretty close. I have a carrier deck display too. This is a relatively rare boxing I found. I used the Eduard detail set [...]

1/72 CAC Avon SAbre conversion

This is the Fujimi 1/72 Sabre F30 kit with the Tasman CAC Avon sabre conversion. This constitutes a rough & ready molded fuselage, nose intake & vac. canopy [Falcon-I think] and finally a set of decals. The conversion is OK but [...]

1/72 Panzer I

This is the Flyhawk 1/72 Panzer I Ausf. F EARLY VERSION A very nice kit but a bit fiddly...especially the individual tracks...this takes a bit of patience! I added a few figures to give it some life on the base. Flyhawk makes some [...]

1/48 F-100D Trumpy

This is a Trumpeter 1/48 F-100D I built a while back. I added a few items but built it mostly stock.
