Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
1/48 Revell F-86D
I finished this one a couple of months ago, I'm still looking for a good BMF paint. This one was painted with Alclad. This is a really nice kit to build and I used the kit decals which went on with no issues and using decal solvent. I have [...]
Hobby Boss Fury
Just finishing up on this project, it went well but I had some snags, I'm not sure if it was on my part or HB. This is the first kit I tried my new Iwata C Plus on, and it's a great airbrush.
My First Spitfire
This Spitfire is an Airfix kit. It is 1:72 scale. As this is my first spitfire, I customized it a bit. I combined two paint jobs that I REALLY liked. I first painted it silver. I thought it looked plain and simple, and I didnt really like [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 Airacobra Mk.I
Used Ultracast seat, Vector .30 cal. gun barrels, Eduard Zoom cockpit and some resin from the Aires set. 20 mm canon barrel from brass tubing. Color of Eagles and Pollyscale paints used as well as Tamiya weathering powder. Note on the [...]
Sweet 1/144 A6M2b X7 plus Flight Deck Section
My last project, painted Hinomaru insignias and colored belts/stripes, pitot tubes added with hipodermic needles and wire. Little nice kits but it took me longer than expected to finish these up, too many things to mask, Deck section has 5 [...]
Tamiya 1/48 He162 A-2 “Salamander”
Second build off the bench for 2019 is this HE162 A-2 Salamander. Wanted to build something unusual and with not a lot of parts for a quick relaxing build. This kit fulfills most of those requirements except most of the parts are rather [...]
Messerschmitt BF109 E3
Had some fun with this model creating some scratch elements in the cockpit and trying to have the window open without any ugly support.
I used AK Interactive colors (New formula AK02001). Actually quite good and really easy to apply. The [...]
Kitty Hawk 1/48 XF5U-1 “Flying Flapjack”
I really like modeling propeller driven X-planes. When Kitty Hawk came out with this 48th scale XF5U-1 “Flying Flapjack” in early 2016, I jumped on it.
I built this straight out of the box as it has everything you need including PE [...]
1/32 scale Fisher Hawker Sea Fury, Dreadnought Completed.
Well its time to post a completed model again. This was a great kit of a fantastic air racer, I just love this aircraft as I am sure most of you followers of the Reno Air Races will as well.
Modifications,
Built a section of the engine as [...]
