Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
Here’s a few not so great photos of Revell’s 1/48th scale Ventura Mk. II which I completed on Christmas Eve 2017, my final build of the year. It’s a great kit and fun to construct, but it does take up a lot of shelf space and looks [...]
This is my second contribution to the Kasserine Pass/Tunisia Campaign Group Build…

This is the 1:72 Hasegawa model of the [...]
Despite being in awe of the WW1 fighters I had stayed away from building them for many years due to the lack of decent kits in my preferred scale of 1/32, as well as, the inherent challenges of the breed. Then I heard of this fantastic, [...]
