A P-47D using the Hawk/Testors kit as a starting point. I was a major AMS junkie in the 90’s and early 2000’s. Hence, I amassed a lot of discarded kit parts to use on other kits.
This one used an engine front, cowling, wheels, landing [...]
So, Cserny was the boss of the Lenin Boys, the Hungarian Soviet Republic's equivalent of the Cheka.

The original full sized [...]
Here is a bit of history on the Panigale, taken from totalmotorcycle.com
With the 1299 Panigale R Final Edition, Ducati pays tribute to the twin-cylinder engine that has made Superbike World Championship history. From Marco Lucchinelli’s [...]
Here is a 1/12th scale Napoleonic Cannon, made from the drawings of Barrie Voisey and sold under licence by John Thompson.
