Kinetic 1/48 Grumman S-2E Tracker

The Grumman S2F, nicknamed the “Stoof,” revolutionized carrier-based anti-submarine warfare. Designed in 1951 to a Navy specification calling for an aircraft capable of performing both the “hunter” and “killer” role in ASW, [...]

1/48 AMT P-40F

This is my humble contribution to the P-40 fest. I like these AMT P-40s and think they look really good as long as you close the canopies. I added drop tank shackles from a Hasegawa kit because I wanted to show the clean lines of the [...]

1/48 Airfix Spitfires

I took these pics to share with a friend who is a Spitfire and Airfix neophyte. I thought I'd post them for you guys too. The fuselage decals on the City of Edinburgh Mk. 22 are oversized, but didn't know it until a year after it was [...]

1/48 Otaki P-40E converted to P-40N

Thought I'd join in the P-40 fest. One of my older ones, hence only two pics. Converted Otaki P-40E using the Medallion Models resin P-40N set. Decals are War Eagle for P-40M and P-40N. It's been so long since I did this, I think I [...]

Monogram 1/48 Hawker Hurricane IIa...

Here is another of my old Monogram 1/48 kits from way back, the Hawker Hurricane (by the way, you’ll be happy to know I’m running out of these!). I put a bit more work into this one than I did on the FW 190. It has a scratch built [...]

1/48th Hasegawa F6F-3 Hellcat

When I saw the actual photo of this plane, I just knew I had to build it. Other than the quite unusual white paint trim, it's pretty much a standard WWII tri-color Hellcat. I know it was from a Navy squadron but I have yet to identify [...]

Bf 109E-3 in Legion Condor (Spain)

My another one model of an aircraft used by Legion Condor during Spanish Civil War - Bf 109E-3 in 1/72 scale. This model is a "light" conversion from Airfix's 109E-4 - I've replaced canopy (vacuformed). Also I've used some parts [...]

Highway Pioneers Club Contest

Didn't see a group this fit into so I'm putting it here. One of our local Model Car Clubs recently had a meeting at my house w2hich included a contest that I sponsored. The requirements included building a Gowland & Gowland car kit in [...]

Color quandry

Hi folks, I have attached a heavily cropped (trying to respect copywrite while still asking a question about it) picture of an HU-16C that is/was stored at Davis Monthan. It appears is several color profiles the most famous being in [...]
