Merit 1/35 Royal Navy X Craft

Hi Everyone, Having now got to grips with all my pictures on my laptop, I thought I would share this recently built model with you all. This is a really nice kit, very simple, but very detailed, and is built OOB. Not a lot else to say [...]

U.S.S. Indianapolis “1944”

Here's my rendition of the famous U.S.S. Indianapolis. It is the Trumpeter 1/350 scale 1944 version. It is mostly out of the box, with a Eduard railing set, made for the Academy kit, so it took some adjusting to make work, and some [...]

Revell 1/72 Type VII U Boat

Hello everyone, Here is my first completion for 2016. It was built as a commission for a friend at work. You may recall a previous build I posted of another submarine I built, also for said same friend. A couple of pictures show the two of [...]

Trumpeter 1/350 USS Indenpedence LCS-2

My last of model of 2015. 🙂 It could be better, especially painting part, but I am satisfied. This is my first work with PE parts 🙂 Feel free to comment, good or bad. Thank you.

1/700 USS Maryland BB-46

This is the recent Trumpeter kit, which was apparently developed by Pit-Road in Japan. I love ships and ship models, but being PE challenged, they usually don't love me. This is the first one that I feel that I've finished to a decent [...]

H.M.C.S. Huron

My first model ship since my age was single digits, many, many moons ago... Trumpeter 1/350 H.M.C.S. Huron, '1944' per package. I think that may be true as many features of the superstructure are more complex or not shown at all on the box [...]

Hasegawa 1/450 IJN Akagi

Well, another kit has been made and this is a good first for me. I started getting into ship building when learning about Imperial Japanese Navy ships during ww2, and have actually got me caught on the hook, learning their names, cannon [...]

Italeri 1/35 Elco PT boat.

This model was a commission build for a very good friend of mine. It took me two weeks from start to finish and it was an absolute pleasure to build. The kit fitted together without any hassle. The plastic used is so different from what I [...]

Hasegawa 1/450 IJN Akagi – Part 1

(link) Hi Guys! Just wanted to post this video up if anyone is interested in watching my build through of Hasegawa's aircraft carrier Akagi. This is part 1 and if you visit my YouTube channel you can keep up to date with the progress and [...]

100th scale HMS Victory.

After a long break of several years I have restarted my build of Heller's monster! I put about five years of work researching and scratch building parts including the ships boats. I've put some time in over the past week making scratch [...]
