Summing up 2024
Dear fellow model builders,
This year was quite modest with respect the number of models coming of the production line. Nevertheless this little recap.
Wishing you all a happy and healthy New Year!

2024 REVIEW
Hi fellow iModeler’s…
Overview of my 2024 builds.
THANK YOU all, who took the time to stop, check out, and comment, throughout the year. It is much appreciated.
Here’s to a happy new year and good times at your bench during [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 F-16D "Barak"
One can never get enough with IDF's desert camouflage scheme.
Early He-111s
I’ve always wanted a He-111B Pedro to go with my SCW collection. I’ve been kicking myself for not getting the Cutting Edge conversion for the Monogram kit eons ago. The reviews I’ve read by builders of the Roden 1:72 kit sounded [...]
Another Good Year Of Modeling As 2024 Draws To A Close
It's been a real treat to be able to devote more time to modeling now and even though 2024 was not quite as productive as 2023, I still managed to get five done. But what was special about it for me was the chance to try out several new [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 Fieseler Skoda FiSK 199

The Class of 2024; Completed Builds, (And one that might soon be...?) for the past year...
This past year, 2024, was by far my most productive year as far as completing kits is concerned. My usual output is between five to eight kits depending on time. This year I made the most of the time I had and completed twelve model [...]
Fokker D. VI, 1:32, Roden, Lt. Kurt Seit, Jasta 80, 5 victories
So I found a little more time to finish this kit before the end of the year, which was sitting unfinished in the closet for a long time due to very bad, unusable decals. I ended up using HGW decals and my home made. Completely redesigned [...]
Air Guard F-16C
This is the Academy 1/48 scale F-16A/C kit.
It’s not as detailed as many of the newer F-16 kits that are available , but it isn’t a terrible kit.
I’ve had some Super Scale decals for Air National Guard & Reserve F-16s for [...]
