Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Here is a update for all of you that are following the progress of this build, I had a hard time getting the correct shape of the nose section, and this involved quite a bit of sanding to get it to where I was satisfied with the out come, [...]
This is the ID vacuform kit. I have built nearly every scale kit of this aircraft starting with the Frog kit years ago. This kit however challenged me from the very start- and I have built a number of 1/32nd scale Vacs.
I used the [...]
This is my Tarangus, 1/48th Scale, JA-37 Viggen.
I bought this kit when it was first released, but it stayed in my stash for a long time, because, quite frankly, I wasn’t sure my skills were up to the task of recreating the iconic [...]
Hello fellow modelers,
This is my first post, and I thought I'd start with one of my recent builds, the Italeri 1/48th scale CH-21. I'm a retired Army aviator, so I thought it fitting to start with a helicopter. Overall, this was a nice [...]
This video presents a simple approach to converting the Airfix Spitfire FR MK XIV kit to an earlier Spitire Mk F XIV with the more familiar Spitfire hood. Note: the hatch shown at 9:55 should be on starboard side. The web page for this [...]

This one has been waiting for the last few details for some time, and was actually started in October 2018! I really liked the colors of “white 1” from JG300, but sadly my airbrush skills were not up to the thin lines needed for that [...]
Hi guys.
This is my last victim, a Spitfire from 316 sqd. RAF.
After bult the Hasegawa model of the same item, this one from Italeri looks a litle bit "less", but has been a very satisfactory built.
Hope you like it.

Hello friends!
I present to you my work that I did in 2017.
A huge red box with a beautiful pattern of the prototype model contained very old details!
Perhaps set released in the mid-1980s. The low quality of the set and poor detailing [...]
I have begun assembly of this magnificent bird. Gaps are to be filled with Tamiya putty, and then I will put on the wings, and then a final layer of dope, and then it's time to paint! There are various patch spots where my clumsy self [...]
