Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Hello, this is my ICM 1/48 Heinkel He111-H8 Paravane cable cutter. 9/KG 55 "Greif" France, spring of 1941.
Not the easiest of builds but looks great next to my old Monogram He111. Very nice detail with alot of extras left [...]
This is a 1983 build of Airfix's Spitfire Mk.I that was first released in 1978, kit No. 01065-0. I remember this as a very nice kit that falls together quite nicely and it looks pretty accurate.
This is a straight out of the box build, [...]
The Fiat G.50 Freccia belongs to the generation of fighter aircraft that was to be the first to implement the innovations in aircraft development of the mid-1930s: the design as a monoplane in all-metal shell construction, a retractable [...]

The FAA was the second largest user of the [...]
Finished another Lightning, this one an F2a from 92 Sqn. - RAF Gütersloh Germany. I think the newer Airfix kits are really fun to build. They go together well and make a great series 3 (three footer) for my shelf. Used the kit decals [...]
Hi All!
Dana and I were invited to Ottawa for the dedication of Mike Potter’s Spitfire XVIe. The Spitfire, SL721 was AVM Robb’s personal Spitfire, but was restored as an aircraft flown by the average service pilot. Not a hero but [...]
Hi All!
Everyone on this list knows I like Spitfires, and I have built more than a few. I would like to build one of each variant of the Spitfire, and at least one of each country that flew them. I needed a PR.XI, which was one of the most [...]
