ITALERI 1/48 MACCHI C.200 NIGHT FIGHTER

Keeping with my oddball schemes. The hardest part about being a brush painter is to try to created a sprayed over look such as on the fuselage band. Almost successful here but I'm happy with it. Unfortunately I couldn't find an photo of [...]

Ta 152H (FROG/Revell 1/72)

So, that's it – an old FROG kit back from 1970, repacked by Revell nowadays. I've bought it mostly for practicing in applying "mottling" camo, and to try new Vallejo water-based washes (catalog numbers starts from 76***). After [...]

TAMIYA 1/48 SPITFIRE MK.Vb NIGHT FIGHTER

Spitfire Mk.Vb JU•H(possibly s/n W3848) from 111sqn and flown by Sgt Peter Durnford at Debden, December, 1941

SuE Argentinia 203 – Kinetic, 1:48

Dear modeller-friends, here are some photos of my recent build, a Dassault Breguet Super Etendard from Argentinia-Airforce during Falkland war. The build was a lot of fun, no serious troubles with this kit. It is built OOB, only added only [...]

WILDCATS, WILDCATS and MORE WILDCATS

Here are a few of the F4F's that I've built over the years. As one might guess, Grumman's F4F is one of my favorite fighter aircraft, (Followed close by the P-40 and P-47). There is one 1:32 scale Trumpeter, two are 1:48 scale Hobby Boss [...]

1/48 F-89C Scorpion

This is the Revell kit from 1999. It was a modification of the original F-89H released around 1989. This is one of those kits that I kind of wanted, but passed up when they were available. Naturally, I've really wanted one for the last [...]

Revell 1/48 F-101B Voodoo

Built this strictly OOB several years ago. Always liked the looks of the Voodoo which was part of the Century Series of jets used by the USAF., in the 50's and 60's. The Voodoo was usually armed with two externally mounted Genie nuclear [...]

New 1/48 Airfix P-40 B Warhawk 2nd Lt. George Welch at Pearl Harbor

Well here it's finally finished. This one is hot off the work bench, and I doubt the paint has completely dried... My original intent was to have this P-40 completed by the Anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th. I [...]

No. 1 - Tamiya 1/48 F4F-4 modified with Just Plane Stuff resin wing as Butch O-Hare's F4F-3 No. 2 - Trumpeter 1/32 F4F-4 on Guadalcanal. No. 3 - Trumpeter 1/32 F4F-3 as Butch O'Hare's airplane. No. 4 - Tamiya 1.48 F4F-4 as a Marlet II (no [...]
