My version of a big Japanese girl....

J2M3 Raiden, Hasegawa's new 1/32 effort, done last year. A marvelous kit, a real box-shaker. Built OOB, spent more time on the cockpit "good luck doll' than the paint job. Looking forward muchly to Hasegawa's upcoming NIK2 Shiden [...]

Trumpeter Sukhoi su-25 / czech

I'm a very sloooow modeller, so it took me a year (exactly) to complete this big bird. I really enjoy 32 scale models, but where the heck does one place them when they are done? Anyways, the model was a joy to build. I've added an Aires [...]

Hasegawa 1:32 Scale, Curtiss P-40N “Warhawk”

I can't speak for all of us on here, but there is just something about the Curtiss P-40 that just make it one of my favorite aircraft. Does not matter which type, or which scheme, it just is what it is, a tough, hard nosed fighter [...]

Tamiya/Italeri/Academy Spitfire XIVc in 1/48th scale
