KC-135R Stratotanker 1/72 Italeri
Model is Italeri, 1281 box number, 1/72 scale KC-135R/FR Stratotanker kit. Grey color plastic parts and engraved detailed panel lines. Not an easy kit. Parts are not symmetric. A lot of gaps between parts. And some details are missing on [...]
Lockheed C 130 J 30 Hercules, A97-464, 37 Sqn RAAF Richmond NSW 2001.

Finished! - 1:48 Scale, Airfix Hawker Hurricane
I got this one done, my third for this year! A honey of a kit, loaded with detail and great fit! Loved building this model and I'm gonna have to pencil in another one, just because!
I hope you like the end result, and I saw earlier, one [...]
Academy 1-48 scale F-16A/C with Two Bobs Decals
Started this one in January as a hedge against the missing parts in the Kinetic Sufa,(which showed up too late for the deadline) and the unavailability of the Skunkworks F-16XL. Cheap, quick, cool markings. Turned out to be very cheap. [...]

Hobbycraft+ 1:48 F8F-1 Bearcat
When my friend Jim Sullivan sent me the photo of the NAS Glenview Bearcat, I knew that was the one I wanted to replicate. Fortunately, SuperScale has those markings on their sheet 48-1008.
I possessed both the Hobbycraft and Hobby Boss [...]
Airfix 1/48 Hawker Hurricane
Today I fire a 1/48 scale salvo at my good friend Dennis Meyers in our friendly model competition (I know he's working on the Eduard 1/48 Spitfire he received from imodeler). This is my fourth completed kit for 2016, the Airfix 1/48 Hawker [...]
Hobbycraft 1/48 P-40 L/M
Again this was supposed to be a quick out of the box build but ended up with me spending a lot of time on the model. First of all, I "canvassed in" the wheel wells using coffee filter paper. Then I detailed the cockpit with [...]
