Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
A beneficiary of the tail swap I mentioned in a previous article, this one also features an MDC cockpit and wheels, Cutting Edge exhausts, and an Eagle Editions spinner. Paints are Floquil RLM74/75/76, 04 Gelbe, and RLM66 on the canopy [...]
The Bf109G-6 "Hartmann Edition" formed the basis for this model. Modifications included an MDC G-2/4 cockpit set, True Details wheels, decals cobbled together from Eagle Strike and Eagle Editions. Tape belts with p/e buckles [...]
This was finished earlier this year. It is essentially OOB with the exception of the seat belts, which I made myself. The markings on the aircraft belong to the 53rd Sentai, a unit assigned to defending Japan from attacking B-29s in 1945. [...]
Having trashed Billy Bishop, here's a model flown by the Canadian (and Empire/Commonwealth) Ace of Aces, Raymond Collishaw, whose 60 victories in the Triplane and Camel were fully documented by his squadron mates with whom he flew, and are [...]

This is an Esci kit that I mproved with some parts from the spares box and scratchbuilt. These old Esci Phantoms build well, have recessed panel lines, and are pretty accurate in shape. They lack details in the cockpit and afterburner [...]

I want to introduce you to its first model in 32nd scale, and hopefully not the last - conversion Nieuport-24 from RODEN. Work has been done a lot, but I am pleased with the result so far)) Especially for the model were made decal and [...]
Built about 2006, the very nice updated Eduard Fokker E.V "Parasol". We now know the lozenge isn't the right color (thank you very much WNW for your outstanding research!), but it still looks very nice. Amazing how aircraft [...]
