Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
This is the 1974 issue Monogram DO-335, rescribed, with Ultracast exhaust, and photoetch belts. Lots of scratchbuilding on the gear, cockpit and closing the engine panels.Paint is Tamiya acrylics and decals are Cutting Edge.
Hope you [...]
Bought this kit several years ago before it's recent re-release. Used it along with other Revell and Monogram kits as test beds for developing some sorely needed modeling skills. When you haven't built a kit in over 50 years, things like [...]
I started this model a while back and posted a few work-in-progress articles about the build. The only after-markey I used was a photo-etch seat belt from another model. You can't really see it through the stained, cracked, and weathered [...]
1/72 Revell, finished in mainly Humbrol and MM enamels with Tamiya X22+X21 over kit decals.
I've just finished building this as a mojo-mender as with a few long term projects on the go, I'd become bogged down and in need of something that went together without problems - this 1/32nd scale twin-stick MiG-29UB proved to be just the [...]

Fellas,
Just rolling off the bench is the Hasegawa 32 scale Ki-84. Kit was a pleasure to build with no putty anywhere! This kit just fell together. I did use the Eduardo Big Ed set, and Montex masks instead of the kit decals as in this [...]
Introduction.
My first post here on iModeler and I've really enjoyed the relaxed and supportive attitude (and amazing skills) on show from the members. I've a real thing for 1/32 scale WW2 planes, and thought I'd share my latest attempt as [...]
Robert's F-8s inspired me to take these pics and post them. I thought I was the last guy to have that old Fujimi kit on a display shelf! I built these in the mid 1980s. Robert's AMT kit is an Esci re-pop. I think I have at least 3 more [...]
