Classic Airframes 1/48 Anson Mk.1

A challenging kit by Classic Airframes.

Me 262 HG III Entwurf III "What If" (Amusing Hobby 1/48)

This is a relatively new Amuzing Hobby kit from their "What If" series. This plane certainly didn't exist. But it's a nice kit for a build where you don't have to think about authentic colors, historical accuracy and so on. Just [...]

Roden's Fokker D.VI in 1/32 scaleLt.d.Reserve Josef Filbig, Jasta 80b, western front, summer 1918.

My latest WW1 model is this challening but rather smart Fokker D.VI model. The main points of contention were the lower wing and the undercarriage struts. I added some framing into the fuselage as well as additional non-model parts [...]

Siam Eyes in the Sky...1/48 Lockheed RT-33A, Royal Thai Airforce

Here´s my dad´s next finished project. Hobbycraft´s RT-33A, released in 1992 and still the only 1/48 kit of this aircraft. As usual with HC kits, it lacks detail, especially in the cockpit. Only added Eduard PE seatbels, lights on spine [...]

Airfix Meteor F-8 1:48 target tug

Built this over the summer. The good 1:48 Airfix Meteor kit with which only issue I had was attaching the nose neatly. Like the yellow training/tug schemes so built with target tug stripes and after market decals. Had fun with the build, [...]

Revell 1/48 PV-1 Ventura

A very nice model by Revell.

1/48 Tornado GR.1 with Paveway IIs and Tiald Pod for Balkan Ops

This was a long project that I'd wanted to do for a while. I've always loved the late Cold War/early 1990s RAF Tornado GR.1 camouflage schemes; and I'd come across a blurry photo of a 617 Squadron Tonka taking off for ops over the Balkans [...]
