Cessna single engine airplane retractable landing gear
There is a 1/48 Cessna O-2 Skymaster on the build pile, whose civilian counterpart, the Cessna 337, has quite a few maintenance logbooks with my signature in them. Looking at the model brought back memories of the most terrifying aspect [...]
1/48 Archangel 2005
Another one I finished last year. 1/48 Hasegawa F-4E I used a True Details cockpit and the decals are from Syhart
1/48 Hasegawa F4U-4 Corsair
My intent was to take the Christmas break and crank out a OOB build just for fun. Funny how plans don't always work out. Always liked this bird and was able to see quite a few in the air at an airshow near Indianapolis several years ago. [...]
Airfix 1/48 Hurricane Mk1
Well I've finally(!) got around to finishing a kit, a rare event sadly! Bought a new compressor and dual action air brushes which helped! This is the new tool Airfix kit. Needless to say a great kit from Airfix and so well priced. In [...]
Back to the hobby: Tamiya 1/48 Swordfish Floatplane
After two years absence here is a classic kit.
Out of the box with some added cable.
Ciao a tutti!

1/48 Revell Messerschmitt Me-410B-2/R-2
Hello Folks
I would like to present my latest completed build. This time it is Messerschmitt Me-410B-2/R-2 from Revell. This kit I think is pretty old but was reissue two years ago as Messerschmitt Me 410 B-6 / R-2 in Pro Modeller form. [...]
1/48 Italeri Arado Ar-196A
Completed today, I built it in the markings of one of the Bismark's Arados. Heavily weathered due to the rough life it had. If only for a fairly short time. 🙂 I have a catapult for it. That will be built soon, and will go together in a [...]
Trumpeter 1/32 A-4G Skyhawk
Here is my newly completed Skyhawk of the Royal Australian Navy, 1982.
I built this model as a tribute to my good mate Bruce Chapman who passed away recently. He was a big fan of the Skyhawk and was always talking about how he would have [...]
