1/350 Q Class Zeppelin
A surprisingly challenging project that I made more so by adding rigging. Very fiddly with extensive use of photo-etch. Definitely a skill builder, but now I have a Zeppelin in my WWI model collection.
Revell 1969 Mustang
The back story: In 1969 I bought a brand new Mustang. I was a senior in high school and had saved my summer job money for years. It was bright yellow with the basic 302 ci engine. Black interior. I took it to college the next year. [...]
