Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.

Hasegawa 1/48 Macchi C.205 Veltro

Typical clean Hasegawa build. Another aircraft that benefited from the development of the DB 601/5 series of engines.

Douglas Bader Hurricane, 1/32

This is Bader's second Hurricane I when he commanded 242 Squadron during the Battle of Britain. PCM 1/32 kit. OOB, but modified since (as usual) the Caruana drawings left a bit to be desired in the accuracy department. Had the [...]

Rest Models 1/48 Polikarpov I-3

This is a resin model of the Ukrainian company Rest Models, now - a rarity. In the assembly, there were no problems, in the drawings bear too well. As the prototype was selected fighter squadron Dzerzhinsky, Moscow, 1932. Painted the Gunze [...]

SNJ / T-6 1/48th scale Revell / Monogram

Back in the 60's and early 70's it wasn't uncommon to drive through rural airports and come across an ex-Military aircraft on the tarmack. After WWII you could buy one. And many were bought and flown to airports all over the country. Some [...]

1/48 Spitfire Mk Vb Trop

This is the Tamiya kit with a few PE and resin bits added. Rivets were added using Rosie The Riveter tools. All markings were painted on using Montex paint masks and the stencilling comes from Hobby Decal dry transfers, eliminating the [...]

Roden 1/32 Fokker Dr.I – Manfred von Richtofen

Probably one of the most recognizeable airplanes in history. Done back in 2004 when the kit first came out, using the Cutting Edge decal sheet. Lots of good history in the sheet, I think this is from the research the most accurate look [...]

Roden 1/32 Nieuport 28

Done a few years ago when it first came out. Markings are for Eddie Rickenbacker's airplane. A nice, simple kit without a lot of rigging, good for someone just starting in the WW1 genre. To me the Nieuport 28 is one of the most [...]

BV 194 by Revell

I built this a few years ago, it's still one of my favourites.

Nieuport 17

Eduard Nieuport 17 1/48 scale

RNZAF F4U-1D

Outstanding 1/48 Tamiya kit finished with equally outstanding decals from Aeromaster's RNZAF special package. You really can't go wrong with a Tamiya Corsair.
