Academy B-17F "Shamrock Special"

Hey guys, here's my try at Academy Fortress. Almost OOB, with exception of QB gun barrels and scratchbuilt landing lights. Markings are from Revell, since i always wanted to do "Shamrock", with it's replacement tail, it makes [...]

1/48 Mirage PZL-23B “Karas”

1/72 Academy Bf 109 G-14 (Erich Hartmann) Winter Scheme

No wind in the Valley, so it's picture takin' time !. I actually finished this little gem in June, and then waited for that perfect blanket of white to photograph it. The platform is from the J2F session, enhanced with the real stuff. This [...]

1/48 Monogram / Mattel P-51B Mustang

This is the HobbyBoss Kamov Ka-29 “Helix-B”, in 1/72nd scale. The kit exterior is pretty nice, however, there is very little detail inside of the cockpit or the rear transport compartment. I added a little scratchbuilt detail inside [...]

Wildcat revisited... Tamiya 1/48

This would be one of my earliest Tamiya kits; built, I think, around 1995. I recently read a magazine article by a fellow modeller about his problems with using the right colour for the topsides & the more I looked at mine , the more [...]

Kamov Ka 50 "Hokum", 018, test aircraft Tashkent 1991.

1/72 Italeri, I modified the rotor head, replacing some parts to separate the two rotors, finished in MM enamels with I think Tamiya X22 and MM 30000 over kit decals.
