Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
This is a Monogram 1/48 P-47D . The box is dated 1967 and was still shrink wrapped. It’s from the collection of a modeler, Mr Claude Good, that passed away about 1 year ago at age 86.
It is my interpretation of Captain Frank [...]
Ciao ragazzi, this is my Nakajima Rufe already presented into the group “Pacific theater”. The kit is the old Tamiya 1/48 scale very simple but was very joyful.

This project took the joy out of model building which isn't good for my 6th build. The ICM kit was subpar by every standard. The instructions didn't include the paint scheme or decal layout for the box art version which is what I built. [...]

Primed with Tamiya Neutral Grey.
Painted with Colourcoats Dark Admiralty Grey, Barley Grey, Light [...]
Hi All,

I couldn't resist building this one given the subject matter. The detail and fit of the model was excellent with minimal filler required. The Eddie figures are reasonably well detailed as well. I chose to display the model in flight over [...]
Hello again.
Before you my last project. I used the photoetched frets and the decals from the Profipack edition of the kit, changed the weapon cannons for the metal ones from Master and the Gunsight for a resin piece form Quickboost. I had [...]
Hi All!
