Zvezda Su-2 1/48

Zvezda's Su-2 is a decent kit, with lots of detail for a fair price. It has its drawbacks, such as the void of detail bomb bay, but goes together without major issues. For this project I used Eduard's p.e. set as well as parts from Mars [...]

Minicraft XF5F-1 Skyrocket

I haven't posted anything for a while because I haven't built any models for a while because I was involved in building some buildings and scenery on my N Scale layout. Sorry, poor excuse. After I got to a stopping place, I really had [...]

Lindberg 1/48 Curtiss BFC-2

Due to Robert Knaack's article on November third I was motivated to get off my butt, order some EZ Line and finish my Goshawk. It also got me excited to build the FBC-2 from Freedom Models! The problem was I, like many others have been put [...]

Finished Ju 87G-1

I liked building this, but the canopy gave me nightmares. Well, it is an old kit, soooo... but it is finished and nice. I'm glad I did a good job on it.

Heller 1/72 Lockheed EC-121 "Warning Star"

BIG ! This is a large, old kit, that shows both it's size and age. There are several aftermarket kits, for those who want to upgrade. Mine is straight from the box. There are few parts, but a lot of plastic, and it takes a lot of [...]

Dora Wings 1/48 Bf 109 V4 Prototype

This is my best guess at what this plane looked like. Opinions vary on this plane. Is it V3 or V4? Is the color silver paint, natural metal, natural metal with a tinted clear coat, light grey, or RLM 02? So, I just chose what I liked. [...]
