Bf 109E-3 in Legion Condor (Spain)

My another one model of an aircraft used by Legion Condor during Spanish Civil War - Bf 109E-3 in 1/72 scale. This model is a "light" conversion from Airfix's 109E-4 - I've replaced canopy (vacuformed). Also I've used some parts [...]

He-70F-2 Blitz

This year is full of anniversaries. This model was made in the memory of war that has ended 75 years ago - a Spanish Civil War. This He-70 was the part of Legion Condor. The kit from ICM in 1/72 scale. Vacuform canopies, galvanic exhausts [...]

Mark I "Male"

In August 2014 the world will mark the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War. The war reached out and touched almost everyone’s life in some way or other. Also, this war was the first where tanks were introduced on the [...]

D-Day GB – Typhoon Mk.IB

Tiffy, a well-known British single-seat fighter-bomber. This is addition to my previous two models. HobbyBoss "Easy Assemble" 1/72 kit, very funny and fast build. Build thread here - (link)

D-Day GB – Grumman Hellcat Mk.I

A well-known carrier-based aircraft, produced by Grumman. The British Fleet Air Arm (FAA) received 1263 F6Fs under the Lend-Lease Act. This E-L aircraft was based on the HMS Emperor during D-Day. HobbyBoss 1/48 kit, Techmod decals. Build [...]

A6M2b Zero (Airfix 1/72)

My latest build - a new tooling Zero from Arfix. Great kit (as the others "new tooling" kits from this manufacturer). This is completely OOB build, except a Pitot tube made of syringe needle and canopy masks from Eduard. Chipping [...]

Sd.Kfz.232 (Tamiya 1/48)

There is not so much to say about this model. Kit is easy to assemble and it was a really pleasure to work on it after short run kits. I wanted to try some of the weathering techniques - different filter colors, oils, pigments, etc. It's [...]

Gotha P.60 C-1

This one is a late-war German "paper-plane" (Luft'46), initially a two-seat night fighter equipped with a FuG 240 radar and 4 autocannons. No known mockups or prototypes were ever built. So, this model should be a fantasy [...]

Vought V-173 Flying Pancake

This is my latest build - V-173 from SpecialHobby, a short run kit. Painted with Vallejo and Gunze acrylics , weathered with oils and Tamiya pigments. Seat belts from Eduard. A nice kit for a little bit experienced modeller (there were [...]
