Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Here's some small kits i put together.
The apache and the Viggen are in 1/144 scale, and the others are even smaller scales.
They are from the top:
AH-64D Longbow apache

SAAB 37 Viggen prototype

This is academys 1/48 kit of the Hughes 500D with TOW anti-tank missiles.
A very nice kit to build and there is a number of different kits using the same basic moulds.
It has good detail and a good fit.
I built it almost out of the box, I [...]
This is Italeris kit of the Finnish version of BAE Hawk.
It has somewhat better detailing than the usual Italeri kits.
I only did some minor detailing and weathering with a graphite pencil.
This is another nice kit from Hasegawa, built out of the box.

It is a splendid kit and a joy to build. It is built out of the box, with the pitot tube replaced with stainless wire.
This is an old Airfix kit that I put together some years ago and tested some weathering techniques on it. The kit and its detail is not so good, but I was happy with the result of the weathering and the worn look of it.
I gave it a base [...]

To be honest with you I [...]

Here are some pics of a pair of Spitfires my wife and I built.
I posted them as I thought it might be of interest to those SWMBO.
The kits were Revell 1/72 Spitfires Vb`s, which were basic kits.
The fit was not [...]
