Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
My SAAF No2 Sqn 'Flying Cheetahs' from when they flew in the Korean war.
The kit used was a 1/48 Tamiya F-51D Mustang (Korean war version).
It is a replica of 'Clink Clinks'. The yellow underwing tanks are the napalm tanks used along with [...]
Tamiya awesome 48 scale kit with Quickboost seats, Wheeliant wheels and Eduard RBF tags. Furball decals. Finished with Gunze Aqueous with an oil wash.
This is a remake of a previous build of this aircraft that met an unfortunate demise. The figure was intact and matched the pose for Schiehs so I replaced the original Hasegawa build with the Eduard. This is pretty much box stock except [...]
The Douglas Skyraider, affectionately known as the Spad or flying dump truck is the Tamiya 1/48 kit i purchased in 2001 if i recall correctly. I started building in 2002 but i was defeated by the four color cowling, i could not get the [...]

A really nice kit, fairly innovative engineering but a straightforward build. Highly recommended.
Hello iModeler! Here is my Tamiya Corsair, built out of the box except for some True Details resin wheels. I used EZ line for the antenna wires. Paints are Vallejo Model Air acrylics shot freehand through my Sotar 20/20. It's kind of [...]
I have recently completed this 1/48 Revell Ventura Mk II.
The kit went together fairly well and the only problem areas I found were the weak rear wheel strut (reinforced mine), the very minute contact areas for the bomb bay doors if open [...]

The kit had [...]
Just added the finishing touches to Airfix's 1/24th Hawker Typhoon MkIb this week: a project I've had on the bench for the last six months or so. Admittedly I've picked it up and put it down as and when I've felt like it, but regardless [...]
