1/48 Scale P-47D Thunderbolt "SWEET MUSIC."

Back in 2007 I found a photo of this P-47D Thunderbolt and I bought a kit of it. The decals came from "AeroMaster Decals." When we moved from Colorado in 2016 to a town near the Los Angeles area of California, the model was [...]

1/72 Hasegawa P-38 Lightning “Yippee”

Lockheed painted their 5000th P-38 Lightning "Vermillion" red in 1944 and used it as a demonstrator for a short period. Perhaps this one of the first "Commemorative" paint schemes that are so prevalent these days with [...]

Airfix 1/48 Bolton Paul Defiant

Very nice kit from Airfix and rare topiic from WWII RAF.

The end!!!

At the beginning of 2003 at Eastern Elliniko Airport, three of the Olympic B727-200s (SX-CBB "Mount Pindos", SX-CBE "Mount Athos" & SX-CBF "Mount Taygetus") were scraped one after another and converted to [...]

1/48 Scale Testor’s “Gates Learjet”

Freezin´Wulf…Eduard 1/48 Focke-Wulf Fw190A-4 “Greenheart”

Built in 2017. When Eduard released the new genetration 190, my dad had to build one. Finally also the first model of our Austrian WW2 leading ace Nowotny. The kit is definitely to recommend. Fit and engineering are far better then with [...]

Capt. Freddie Ohr's P-51D Mustang.

This one's been a long time coming. The AeroMaster decals must be 20 years old at least & they've been on my 'must do' list for as long. The kit is the Airfix 1/48th. first variant, which I have done once before & I enjoyed it just [...]

Green Ghost

Hi All, Built this some time ago. Tamiya kit, Aries cockpit and after market decals. This airframe was put into service late in the war and survived into peacetime. Number 93 squadron were called the Green Ghosts and had a relatively [...]

1/144th Revell SpaceShip Two & White Night Two.

A real treat it was to find this model for sale at my hobby shop. I forgot what it cost, but I did not care as I wanted it. None of the parts had hardly any flashing and the instructions were very easy to follow. One photo show's the [...]
