Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Spitfire Mk. Vb, BM124, LO-D, 602 Sqn, as flown by Sqn. Ldr. ‘Paddy’ Finucane, 1942.
This is the Hobby Boss kit; supplied as the 'trop' version but with box contents inconsistent with the box artwork. I elected to modify some parts to produce a British (Kenley) based, early Mk. Vb as the sole windscreen in the kit [...]
Roden 1/48 AT-28D
Frequently a model project will lead to a writing project in TCWorld (and vice-versa). I got the Roden T-28 kit (the first release), and was talking to Ross McMillan of Scale Aircraft Conversions about it, and Ross said he hoped someone [...]
Sweet 1/144 Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero
Sweet's incredible 144th scale Reisen with carrier deck. Absolutely beautiful kit and a joy to build.
Monogram MiG-15 Korean War Ace
This is my 1/48 MiG-15 from the old 1987 Monogram kit that also had an F-86. It is finished in Floquil Old Silver, with some panels done in other shades of silver or polishing to various degrees. It carries the markings of Russian Capt. [...]
Eduard 1/48 Albatros D.Va
The latest model from the dioramas - Albatros Ernst Udet. For some reason I finished the cockpit, but the pilot is shut everything)). A little more extended the landing gear - Edward gives them too short, and it shows. Color aircraft given [...]
Messerschmitt Me109E-3, ‘White 8′, (Eduard 1:32)
Another commission build this time for a client in Germany. The 'White 8' markings are fictitious by request and reflects his interest in online flight simming-'White 8' being his online markings. The kit can be tricky in places and I [...]
Supermarine Spitfire MkIXC, 601 Sqn (Tamiya 1:32)
This was a commission build for a friend. The markings are 601 Sqn but are fictitious as per the aircraft he flies online. The Tamiya kit is an absolute pleasure to build and features a beautifully detailed Merlin 60 engine set to which I [...]
Supermarine Spitfire Mk1 'LO-B, 602Sqn, 1940 (Tamiya 1:72)
As beautiful as the Spitfire is when its all 'buttoned up', I wanted to depict one stripped down as if in maintenence. This was a real challenge in such a small scale but I think it worked. The base is hand-made from Beech and I used [...]
Roden 1/72 Pfalz D.IIIa
The basic modifications affected the cabin. It was also the location of fixed horizontal stabilizer. Color options of Roden was not I, too hackneyed, so that's found a striped version.
