Video: Eduard 1/144 Ju-87D Stuka Part 2: The build!
After a little teaser from the last video showing you how I vacformed the canopy for the little Stuka, here's the rest of the build.
Video: Eduard 1/144 Ju-87D Stuka Part 1: Vacforming the canopy!
Not a build video in the typical sense - that will be part 2 - but I just thought I'd show you all how I made my own canopy for this kit. Having built the cockpit from sctarch, the original one-piece canopy, being rather thick, would have [...]
Video: A look at Airfix's new-tooling of the 1/72 Mitsubishi A6M2b Zero
Took delivery of this little beauty a few days ago. I was eager to see just what improvements Airfix had made over their dreadful original after my experience with it earlier this year and I have to say the improvements are many. Other [...]
Part 2: The ZERO Resurrected!
So what started out as a fun build challenge in a tent one night in the summer, ended up being a full-on test of my ability and patience!

So, I took it upon myself to give this amalgam of [...]
Video: Camping Challenge! One Night Build! In A Tent! MakingModelsAlfresco!
Tune in next time when I'll build a 1/32 B-17 BEFORE we get to the checkouts at Tesco!*
No models were harmed in the making of this video. Only my enthusiasm. (temporarily, of course)

Video: Hasegawa 1/48 SBD-3 Dauntless
Probably one of my quickest builds in that I didn't start on something else during the build or spend any time away from it for whatever reason - a first for me!
The canopy didn't 'nest' like it should, so I had to omit the gunner's [...]
