Eduard Bf109E-1 in 1/32

This is my first completion for 2016 although I started it before Christmas. The kit is the Eduard Week end boxing & went together with no real problems. Admittedly there is only one set of decals included & no resin or etched [...]

Models in 2015I'm surprised

I'm really surprised to discover I managed to build 22 models in 2015, in spite of everything else I did in the year: Moved in February - no modeling in January, February or early March. Wrote "The Frozen Chosen" between [...]

1/48 Blue Aggressor

Completed models for 2015!

I managed to get four kits done this year. First is the Hobby Boss, 1:32 scale, Stormovik. This one was the single seat on skis. Good kit, with a couple of fit issues with the outer wing panels, but I enjoyed building it, and will build [...]

Hello Folks! It's been awhile since I lasted posted anything on here. This is a project I have been kicking around for a long time, and finally decided to jump off the fence and get busy. Most of my glue sniffing buddies have either [...]
