Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
One of those "I think I'll take up stamp collecting after seeing this" models.
1/32 scratchbuilt Fw-189 "Uhu" in winter camouflage.
1/48 scratchbuilt Republic Rainbow. Probably one of the most beautiful multi-engine propeller airplanes ever flown. Had the Air Force picked it up, there was a plan at the end of the war for American Airlines to use it as a high-speed [...]
Bill would kill me with his bare hands were I to actually refer to him as "the legendary Bill Bosworth," but in fact that title is true, though it should never be used since he would deny all. So just remember, you never read [...]

This model of the Learjet has been around for many years, and is still available. It shows it's age when compared to the newer Hasegawa Learjet 35/36 (but, don't we all). Still, it builds into a decent looking business/private jet that [...]
Just a few desert camo RAF aircraft. All oob builds, the Legato P-40 kit was hard work but turned out ok and has a good shape, the Tamiya kit as usual was a dream and the keenly priced Revell kit fitted together really well, happy enough [...]
