Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
This build was inspired by a scene from the movie WE WERE SOLDIERS, where Huey gunships fly in low to unleash rockets at the advancing NVA. The kit is the Academy/MRC 1/35 scale Huey Hog in the colours of the 114th Assault Helicopter [...]
This is the Apache Longbow as I'm sure you are all well aware, this version is the AH-64 D. This is a more recent model of the famous attack chopper incorporating advanced radar and targeting systems. There are very few obvious differences [...]
Well here it is, un veiling day.
The story so far.
The good Lady Biggles (Rose) built the Beauty, a Spitfire MK 1 (Tamiya 1/72).
Her third ever build and first solo so to speak.
Well Tamiya speaks for itself, shake the box and it goes [...]
This is a recently finished project of mine - Trumpeter's 1/32nd scale BAC Lightning F6 finished as a 5 Squadron aircraft based at RAF Binbrook in the late 1980's.
I added a few extra details to the model such as an Aries cockpit set, [...]

I really enjoy building models of commercial aircraft, and couldn't resist when I stumbled upon this Aircraft in Miniature (ex Transport Wings) vacform of the iconic Boeing 747... in yes... you read correctly... 1/72nd scale.
The kit I [...]
Hi all, for the BoF/BoB.
1/48 CA Boultan Paul Defiant. I loved building this kit. Lots of fun even with the extra workload of a limited run kit. It went together very nicely.
Not many pics sorry. But hope you like anyway.
Paul.
As soon as I saw the advance notice I put in my order for this magnificent & much neglected model. It seems that most kit manufactures have forgotten about the 1950's & '60's so a Cougar was great news!
It arrived (of course) [...]
My old job. Fokker pilot ace Oswald Boelcke.
Best regards, Vlad.
This is a German mid altitude interceptor that was brought in at the end of the war but to late to be effective. Hobby Boss' kit is a very nice rendition of this big plane. The kit has positional flaps, ailerons, and rudder. This is a very [...]
