Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
For your consideration, an Academy 1:48 Hunter F.6. I replaced the undersized cockpit with a KMC resin replacement which looks and fits nice. Used aftermarket Hunter Xtradecals decals for 4 FTS at RAF Valley. While kit has accuracy [...]
I was excited to hear that Airfix was coming out with a new-tool Lysander this year I have always liked the look of this aircraft going back to my youth when my mom, for Christmas, 1973, gave me the Aircraft in Profile volume that [...]
An excellent model by Airfix. The build is complex, but not complicated. There are plenty of details and much scratch work to add. I detailed the crew entry door and more. Instructions however, are missing some of the holes required to be [...]

I assembled this 1/48 replica using the @Tamiya Block 50 kit.

This build is of an initial boxing of the old 1972 Airfix Mosquito that I picked up on a sale table. There’s a far better 2021 new tool Airfix but this is my first Mossie so thought I’d start with an easy one. I decided to finish it [...]
My favorite Ju 88A in the MTO. The model depicts an aircraft of 3.KG54 based in Catania, Sicily.
This build is of the new Flyhawk kit, and represents the aircraft flown by Lt. Richard H. Best, commander of Bombing 6, and & ACRM(PA) J.F. Murray on the U.S.S. Enterprise (CV-6) at the Battle of Midway on 4 June 1942.
On June 4, [...]
