Here’s my latest build - the Nemeth Parasol from Avis (Ukraine) in 1:48. I needed a simple no-brainer with a low parts count after my last big project. This one fit the bill - good fit, simple one-color paint job, and good decals. My [...]
This was a lot of fun to build and even more to paint.

The F-86 was in service in the FAA between 1960 and 1986. First without paint scheme, with the natural bare metal. [...]
A very old kit of a very old truck. Original issue Monogram MAC Bulldog stake truck. I remember seeing an old rusted out one out in afield at my aunt's farm in the '70s. Not much was left of that one, blackberries were growing through [...]
