Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
1:15 Scale. Model Engineering. One-Off Aluminum Model. Truly Scratch-Built.
The custom metal models built by Guillermo Rojas Bazán are considered the best in the world in their category by several institutions of wide international [...]
Finished another one! This is the very new Trumpeter two-seat Dart. It's a kit I really looked forward to and started it when I received it in early July. It's a nice kit, that assembles well, with a few flaws. The biggest issue to me [...]
1/48 Airfix kit which was built OOB with aftermarket decals. The aircraft depicted is from JG 26 based at Caifiers France August 1940. Flown by Staffelkapitain Gerhard Schophel, who claimed a number of victories during BoB including 4 in [...]

The Ki 44 was a Japanese Army Air Force interceptor. The ARII kit, while old, was at one time, "state of the art", and is still a no-problem, fun build. By today's standards, there's not much detail, but this kit comes from a [...]
Hi all.
Here's one I made some time back. I think it's a Silver Cloud kit in 1:48th scale.
The kit decals were shot so the spares box saved the day. It also supplied the weapons, I've no idea what it would have carried so it's a little [...]
