Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Taking a break from Mustangs. These two are a couple of my personal favorite paint schemes and both have a great history.
Lt. Col. Frank Perego, 368th FG Commander‘s ‘Slick Chick’ and 56th Fighter Group Ace David Schilling’s [...]
Hello dear iModelers,
Here I am back after long months of absence, with a P-51C "Red Tails" of the Tusgekee Airmen, and more precisely Apache II piloted by Lieutenant Henry "Herky" Perry.
This is the Tamiya model, [...]
Dad´s finished another one.
New Eduard kit oob. A good kit like their other late 109s but still some mnor corrections to be done. Relocated the lift up holes on the rear fuselage, opened the missing shell ejector opening for the engine [...]
Given that today is a bit of a drab weather day, I figured it would be a good day to post up a build that was completed a month or two ago. The subject is Ryan's XP-77 fighter prototype, and the kit is another old Czech Models limited-run [...]

ProModeler's boxing of Revell's giant Heinkel depicts the MTO camouflage scheme version. It is a very good kit offering a trouble free build experience. The model is less detailed than you may expect for the size of model to show. Yet, [...]

As far as P-38 kits go, it really is an "easy" kit, but you do have to deal with very long seam lines that [...]
This is a kit by LF models and I think it may be their first all plastic kit in 1/48. It is a limited run product of very good quality. Options include cowl panels to do either the in line exhaust or the tubular. The clear parts are very [...]
I wanted to do one more model for the Sullivan Memorial Group, and a photo in Golden Wings of a US Navy SNJ-3 caught my eye. It was a very weathered SNJ-3 photographed at NAS Moffett Field in 1944. The camouflage seemed to be a cross [...]
