Hi All!
After fighting with the Hasegawa Harrier, I needed a simple. easy to build kit. Thanks to Steve Corvi I had an Italeri (ex-AMT) P-40E/K kit. The AMT family of P-40s are easy to build and look like P-40s. They do have their warts [...]

If you haven't built a 1/48th Tamiya Mosquito you may want to consider one. A model of this caliber can serve as a benchmark of what an excellent kit encompasses or just be that great, low-stress build when you need one. (Say for example, [...]
Here’s my latest build - the Nemeth Parasol from Avis (Ukraine) in 1:48. I needed a simple no-brainer with a low parts count after my last big project. This one fit the bill - good fit, simple one-color paint job, and good decals. My [...]
