1/72 Heller Spitfire MK 16E

Started Jan. 2020 Finished March 2020 This kit has been in my stash for over 40 years. The box art on this inexpensive kit from the late 70s caught my eye. A Spitfire in bare metal finish is not that common. I was lucky to see the [...]

Airfix 1/72 A-4B Skyhawk, VA-15 Valions, USS Intrepid, Tonkin Gulf 1967

Hi all, I posted pictures of this model before, but since I've added the display stand, so I figured that now it's really finished I'd post some pics of the final result. The Airfix kit was an easy build and a cheap one. I spent more on [...]

1/72 Airfix F-84F Thunderstreak Diavoli Rossi

1/72 Airfix F-84F Thunderstreak Diavoli Rossi Started Feb. 2020 Finished April 2020 The box art on this kit got my attention right away with the super flashy Italian Airforce Red Devil (Diavoli Rossi) demonstration team livery. The decal [...]

Airfix 1/48 Gloster Meteor F.8

Nice Airfix model, except of nose cone mounting everything was smooth. Hope you like it. Cheers!

Hasegawa P-3B, Argentinian Navy

This is the Hasegawa P-3C kit converted to a Advanced P-3B configuration, I say advanced since some of the antenna fit resembles that of the P-3C. That being said it is still a P-3 with the Sonobuoy tubes being filled and the P-3C sensor [...]

1/48 Kinetic Spanish F-18

Hi again. Just finished a Spanish F-18 50th aniversary Ala 46 Gando. The kit is good, only the instructions have a problem with the undercarriage because you have two models and the number of the undercarriage is not right . The kit [...]

1/144 Revell F-18 Super Hornet

Hi Friends. This is the last model I've finished at the same time that a Kinetic 1/48 F-18. Is a Revell model kit, a very good kit. I hope you like it

Monogram 1/48 AV-8B

Hello gentlemen, This is my latest work. It take more than 25 years for complete. I had started it in my age 25 and finished it at 50. So I didn’t touch up the cockpit that I made 25 years ago. Thank you for watching my work!

Banzai!…1/48 Yokosuka (Kugisho) D4Y1 Model 11 Suisei “Judy” Imperial Japanese Navy

My dad´s next contribution to the Empire of Japan GB. As far as I´ve read the Judy was Fine Molds first 1/48 release, dating back to 1993. So there are some fit issues. As you can see on the pics, the inner landing gear doors have [...]
