Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.

Tamiya Salamander

Made this little gem of a kit around 2 years ago, and still love to see it on my shelf, smaller than most other 1/48 but unique nonetheless. A mix of old war shades (81/82/84 on the fuselage) and early war shades (71 over 65 in the [...]

1/48 Tamiya F4D Skyray VF-74

First build for 2018. I would have had on e finished back in December of 2017 but it was scraped back to some major issues i had. This is OOB except for the Furball decals. Model finished with Tamiya paints and Mig washes . Hope you all [...]

1:32 Zoukei-Mura P-51D Mustang

This was my first build after a 25 year break from models so I figured start with the Cadillac of war birds. I picked the Zoukei-Mura over the Tamiya kit based purely on price. And I must say, this is a really nice kit. If you want to [...]

This was the first of my SAAF builds and I was very happy with the result. It's pretty much OOB, apart from a after market ejection seat. South Africa obtained a license to produce the MB-326M (similar to the 'G' model), as the Impala Mk [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 RF-4B Phantom II

My last built kit, represent a reconnaissance Phantom from VMFP-3 with deactivation color.

1/48 Hobby Craft P-26 Peashooter

Well, sports fans. I’ve finally finished my 1/48 Hobby Craft Boeing P-26 Peashooter. I built it as gift for my wife Kathy and jokingly call it the “Fabergé Easter Egg of Fighter Planes. The late 1930’s and the run up to WWII truly [...]
