NSR 500

I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the Honda NSR 500 racer... truth is, all I know is what was written on the Tamiya instructions. Spent about nine weeks on it and for a majority of that time it's had my undivided attention, [...]

My year’s modelling work

I managed to keep one of my new year’s resolution - no military models - and kicked off 2022 with Tamiya’s 1/12 Yamaha XV 1600. This was followed by the then new Suzuki Ecstar GSX-RR ‘20, as ridden by 2021 world champion Joan [...]

Another weathered 1:50 Scale Truck Commission

Italeri Fiat Mephisto

Having fun with this Italeri Fiat kit. I hope to finish it as well as many others have? Not sure I’ll be happy with just painting the body the usual ‘smooth’ finish: Which imho will not accurately represent the beautiful ‘rough’ [...]

26 - Revell Ferarri 308 GTB (Cut to a GTS)

An old Revell Ferrari kit, which was pretty decent. I enjoyed this build but made some mistakes on it as usual. The roof was cut off to make the GTB into the convertible GTS. Instead of the usual Ferrari Red, I chose to. go with a really [...]
