Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Howdy,
I built this almost out of the box a few years ago. I added etched seatbelts, decals from MSAP for a Me-109F4-B of Frank Liesendahl of JG 2. The ETC 500 bomb rack and bomb are from a Hobbycraft Me-109E kit. Weathering was kept to a [...]
This is one of those kits that, after you build it, the thought of, "What the hell am I gonna do with this?" It's a big model. I have to say though, even though Trumpeter has a reputation for fit issues, that this kit is NOT [...]
One of my later efforts, Tamiya's 1:48 scale Heinkel He-219. A really nice model and a good build. Good detail inside and out, and most importantly, the fit was excellent so that negated a WHOLE lot of sanding.

Despite it's elegant form I recently found out that it does'nt really fly too well! Was doing some dusting one day and knocked her off the shelf, needless to say she exploded! Most of the small [...]
Hello,
This is a build I've made a couple of years ago. It's the 1:32 scale Hasegawa Ki-61 Hien which I converted into the "late" Ki-61-II Kai "Bubbletop" version, which later was fitted with a radial engine when there [...]
