Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
I really enjoyed building this excellent kit. The only aftermarket items are Eduard PE seat belts and Ultracast exhausts. I also used Eduard canopy masks and was able to re-use them on the inside for the RLM 66 after painting the outside. [...]
Something I did a few years ago, Snakeyes and gun pod came from Monogram F-4, rocket pods from Heller T-28, AIM-9's from spare parts box, fuel tanks from Hasegawa T-33, seat- Airfix Tornado. Not sure about the decals but they are S. [...]
This little trumpeter kit was a nice build except for the kit decals. Painted waith Tamiya paints and weathered with Mig washes . Enjoy 🙂

Base kit is the Academy SUFA which I found to be a great kit despite some on-line criticism.

I have to admit my fingers are not as supple as they were in fact I have somewhat severe arthritis in [...]
I built this for a Jolly Rogers group build elsewhere a few years ago. I used the kit decals and the Eduard "Big Ed" photoetch set. This was the first Tomcat I actually managed to finish... no fault of any of the kits I started, [...]
Back to 1/72 scale with this model. The RWD 8 was a Polish parasol monoplane trainer aircraft produced by RWD It was used from 1934 to 1939 by the Polish Air Force and in Polish civilian aviation.
This kit by polish manufacturer [...]
Three Phantoms- one old build, two fairly recent, The first is I believe VF-74's first scheme of the 1960's . I used an old Hasegawa F-4J which really is a 'B' because of the thin wings, Airfix decals, crudely dropped the slats and flaps [...]
This is a nice kit. It was in a icons of aviation box from Revell. Tiger Meet special. It came with an RF Phantom which I have not made yet. The plastic is originally Italeri and it went together well. The decals were fantastic and I hope [...]
