Lotus Super 7 Series 2 (Tamiya #2446)

Nothing new on my bench so I decided to take photos of a favorite from my collection. As far as I know this kit is out of production. My kit has 1984 dates on the instruction sheet. The original Lotus 7 was introduced in 1957. At the time [...]

Mazda Miata/MX-5 1999 NB8C

With the extra time from Shelter-in-Place I finally pushed my microscope aside and got to work on this NB Miata/MX-5 build. This is Aoshima’s 99 NB8C kit. I have always loved the lines of this car, but I’m biased. My daily driver is a [...]

Miniart 1/35th LGOC Type B Bus

Over the years ago have made the old Airfix B Type bus kit. Likely a bit of a rite of passage for many modellers I feel. When I saw Miniart bringing one out, thought why not indeed and got myself one. As always with Miniart somewhat over [...]

1/25th Scale Monogram 1931 Ford Model A

I bought this car 'cause the real one's were produced by the Ford Motor Company during the year of my birth. This model kit had next to no flashing, but they had a couple of punch mark's on some of the parts. In fact if you pay attention [...]
