Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Second go at a Be2c for a friend who's Great Grandfather flew them. Very tricky mounting top wing and an absolutely massive rigging job.Not perfect by any means. I wouldn't want to tackle Airfix's 1/72 version of this! It's a lovely [...]
Hello.
I would like to share a photo of the 85 Curtiss P40 done so far. Two shelves are already fully occupied. The complete list counts with 116 aircraft selected for this series. My father has already done the Tomahawks, E, L, F and [...]

This Bf 109E-4 is supposed WNr. 3709, [...]
The Aermacchi MB-326 was a low-wing monoplane with an all-metal structure composed of light alloys. As originally developed, the MB-326 functioned as a refined but simple aircraft capable of covering the considerably wide range of [...]
