Science fiction, fantasy and mecha model building.

Shin Godzilla Resin Kit Build

I started this build of Godzilla from the 2016 film Shin Godzilla (the new Japanese version, pictured above) as a gift more my brother and sister-in-law after they dealt with the bulk of our mother's estate affairs last year after her [...]

A Fun Fantasy Kit!

Last year I started quite a few kits but for various reasons (none good really) I only finished one. So one of my goals for this year is to either finish last year’s previously started kits or “send them on their way.” Second on my [...]

One down, three to go!

My goal for the first part of the new year was to have a few fun builds before a "serious" project. My wife, kids and son in law helped out with some great kits for my birthday and Christmas. I stated with Moebius Models [...]

Rogue Squadron Bandai Speeders

I wanted to share my latest project, a pair of 1/48th Bandai Snowspeeders. These were a quick build I completed on Christmas vacation. They are finished with Vallejo model air paint and weathered using Tamiya pastels and black Tamiya [...]

iModeler at the Movies. Klingon Bird of Prey

I know it may be too early to post, but since this was a Christmas present for my sister and is leaving today I had to get some shots. The kit is AMT's 1/350 Klingon BoP made up as the HMS Bounty from Star Trek IV, The Voyage Home. I [...]

Bandai 1/12 custom Star Wars Clone Trooper

I swear to you guys that I do more than just Star Wars builds but I keep getting sucked into these Star Wars build offs! With that said go to Instagram #trooperbuildoff2 @dfmodelkits and vote for your favorite custom trooper voting ends [...]

Bandai 1/12 R5 Droid

This is one of my older builds from 2015. Was doing a high weathering idea especially with the thought of oil leaks. Today I would approach this totally different but it is good to remember our older stuff for what we did right as well as [...]
