P-47D Thunderbolt
An impulse build after the 1:48 Airfix Spitfire from a month or so ago. Five weeks from cracking the box to what you see here – and yes I know I haven’t painted the sway braces on the pylons and centreline yet.

RAF Fortress III Detail Photos
Following on from last week's post on my RAF Fortress III, I said that when the new issue of AMW was out I'd post some detail photos. Well the new issue is out tomorrow so here are the photos as promised. This is a 1:72 kit so you are [...]

Tamiya 1:48 P-51B of the 486th FS, 352nd FG
OK, folks, my first article on IModeler. As my profile states, I'd been out of the craft for about 35 years doing life, and now life seems to have granted me to get back into it. This featured model is my third essay (the previous being an [...]

I little while ago I took some photos of two Tamiya 109's that I built about 18 years ago. (man time really flies...).
I had planned on posting them, (along with the other 1/48 Tamiya Bf-109 E-4 / 7 that I built as "White 12"), [...]
Miles M.2F Hawk Major 1:72 – scratchbuilt
Hi Everyone! This is my scratchbuilt 1:72 Miles M.2 Hawk Major, more specifically an early „F” version. I have a plan - near on the top on my modeling „bucketlist” - to collect all the „Macrobertson” entries (and maybe a huuge [...]
