Tiger, Destroyed!

Hey everyone. This is an oldie but goodie, the Tamiya Tiger 1 Mid Production. My first Tiger I ever did. I have repainted it probably 4-5 times as it became my paint mule and practice slab for many techniques over the years. This was my [...]

Fire, water, air... three elements, one aircraft: Canadair's mighty CL-215!

A week ago, on Monday 1st April, Tom Cleaver @tcinla posted a news article announcing that the last living survivor of the USS Arizona had sadly passed, Mr Lou Conter, an undoubted hero, reached the grand age of 102. As iModeler is an [...]

Pacific Coast Models Hawker Hurricane I (1/32 scale)

My model depicts F/O Richard Brooker climbing aboard 56 Squadron Hurricane P3153 at North Weald in August 1940. The kit is quite accurate though challenging to build, but I used the Brian Fawcett additions of a “dog kennel”, the area [...]
