Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
A real gem of a kit from Beacon Models, and at around £21 for the two aircraft included it's an absolute bargain. There's a surprising level of interior detail for such a small kit, and although almost impossible to see once the fuselage [...]
I have completed the D-9 which will accompany my Fw 190A-7 in an upcoming Diorama. I chose to not weather it as much as I did for the A-7, but still went heavier than normal.
Please enjoy!
In 1933 the Avro 652, a planned high-speed, long-range mail carrying charter aircraft was under development when the British Air Ministry issued a specification for a twin-engine general reconnaissance and multi-role aircraft for both the [...]
Kinetic first released their 1/48 E-2C Hawkeye kit in 2009 and I would say it is still the best Hawkeye kit in any scale (if you have the room). The kit has been updated since its release with new parts and reissued. My build is of the [...]

Kinetic's F-16I kit, the advanced Falcon version dedicated for the requirements of the IDF, comes with a complete IDF dedicated accessories and decals. I added resin ejection seats to enhance the realism of the open cockpit. The build [...]
Having just completed the Mk.1 Spitfire by Airfix, i decided to do another one. This is the Airfix Supermarine Spitfire Vb in 1/48th scale. It represents a plane of No. 133 squadron in Biggin Hill in 1942. Decals are from the kit.

Another adorable model by ProModeler. It was criticized for panel shape in the tail unit and some fit issues. Yet, overall it makes an eye catching representation of the fighter that did not materialize the expectations.
I added Aires set [...]
What a journey building this A-7! I will be finishing up an accompanying Fw 190D-9 within a few days and will be starting a diorama they will be displayed on.
I chose this specific scheme for its unique color pattern. It called for RLM 76, [...]
The Caudron G.III from Copper State Models is my first model build from this manufacturer. I was very surprised by the high quality of the kit. The construction of the model itself is basically simple. The quality of the moldings is [...]
