TBF-1 Avenger 1:72
I bought this kit at a local arms fair. The box appeared very neat and new yet the kit was simply a rebox of an older academy kit. There was basically no detail for the interior(which is luckily hidden pretty well on the avenger). For what [...]
PANTHER
One of my "older" models. I hope you like it. It was the old Tamiya kit and it got some modifications. It was my first model with "heavy weathering" also.
Bandai 1/72 A-Wing Starfighter
This is Bandai's excellent "snap time play time" as my son calls it. They do with snap fit what some companies can't do with traditional methods. They don't bake their plastic which means that it can be effected by some of the [...]
Kawasaki Ki61/Hien (Tony)
My first attempt in metallic finishes, many lessons learned, many more yet to learn.

Excellent fit and details.
Every comment is welcomed [...]

The last varnish coat produced a 'whitish' look :-/
[UPDATE] Later on, the antena [...]
Mitsubishi A6M2 – Zero; Tamiya, 1/48
This plane represents one of the 2nd wave that stroke Pearl Harbour, from the Akagi.
I scribed lots of panel lines and rivets so, at the end, did a heavy weathering to made those work pop.
After a break of almost 30 years, I have lots of [...]
Sukhoi Su-22; MasterCraft 1/72
As this year is the 50th aniversary of the invasion of Checoslovaquia, I built this model with their colors.
This plane is quite special to me, for some reasons:
1- It was a gift from my friend Jorge.
2 - It was my first Russian fighter [...]
Spitfire MKI -1940; Airfix, 1/72
Returnig to this hobby after almost 30 years, I’ve heard that Airfix is doing OK. So, I built my favorit plane just straight from the box, just to check.
Chosed the early Dunkirk color scheme (B/W underside), as it was fun to [...]
