11 - Academy 1/48 Hughes 500d – Isreali Scheme
A nice quick and quite simple build that I put some extra effort into - I wanted to do an Israeli scheme but didn't have the decals to so I made a mask of the Yellow V with tape and got a friend to cut a mask of the Israeli roundels for [...]
Great Wall Hobby 1/144 B-52H Stratofortress (L1008)
The GWH B-52 is a great model. The fit is excellent and the surface details are appropriate for this scale. The only curiosity is that, although the builder has the option to pose the bomb bay doors open, there are no bombs to put in it. [...]
Eduard Focke-Wulf 190 F-8 – first of the Schlacht trio
Hi everyone,
Finally completed.
The first of a trio of Luftwaffe ground attack planes, this kit represents the machine of Major Theodor Nordmann, the Kommandeur of II./SG.3, in August 44, based in Riga, Latvia.

Monogram 1/48 OA-4M
Just recently off the bench is my rendition of the older but excellent Monogram 1/48 OA-4M in the two tone gray finish. I used Mr. Color paints and their semi-gloss for a final finish. Furball decals were also used and I cannot say [...]
Saab J 29B Tunnan S/N 29475 - UN Squ. No. 22 (Sweden) - Congo - 1961/1963
Dear Imodelers,
Please find my latest model, a Saab Tunnan from Hobby Boss.
Initially, I was thinking of making a classic aluminum version. But Hobby Boss also offers a camouflaged version, to say the least, new, with UN roundels (squares [...]
Roden 1/144 Boeing 720B Pan American
This is the first time I have assembled a Roden kit.
The box art is attractive, but the kit itself has a nice atmosphere when completed.
The accuracy of the parts was good and they took shape quickly.
However, because the surface of the [...]
Desert Air War Group Build – Eduard 1/48 Spitfire Vb floatplane
The Spitfire Floatplane:
The Spitfire was the descendant of racing seaplanes. As the war developed, it appeared there were places where a high performance seaplane fighter might be useful, which led to the development of a modified [...]
Tamiya 1:48 F-16C Block 32 Aggressor
This is my second Tamiya F-16 and was completed in March 2021. I encountered a few small fit issues I don't remember from the first one, but I still really love this kit: clever engineering, not overly difficult, but still an interesting [...]
Airfix 1:48 P-40B
This completion dates from November 2020. I really enjoyed the build. The kit has very few vices beyond some fit funkiness in the lower nose section. It's completely OOB except for Eduard PE lap belts. I mixed Testors Zinc Chromate and [...]
