Building, painting and finishing scale aircraft models.
A friend of mine bought me this kit so that the two of us could both build P-40N's (although his was 32 scale). I liked a couple of the Pacific Theater schemes that came in the box - especially the white-tailed version - but as I was [...]
1/72 Fujimi, finished in MM and Revell enamels with Future over the kit decals, unknown top coat !
Long time no speak, iModeler! Here is a Lynx gifted to me by my wife's grandmother Mary, who we all called Nan. She was a very special lady, veteran of ww2 WAAF, and tough as nails. I only wish she got to see this sooner...

I’ve been working on Tamiya’s 32nd scale Zero for a few months now.
Generally I enjoyed the build but didn’t appreciate the added complication of the working features. I also struggled with getting the front of the fuselage to line [...]
This is Trumpeter's 1/32 Flanker G.
Additional work included scratch-detailing in wheel wells and cockpit, and PE from the Eduard Big Ed set for the Sukhoi and North Star's wheel chocks for modern Soviet aircraft.
I used Prime Miniatures' [...]
