E-75 Heavy Assault Flammpanzer "Drache", What- If/1946 (1/72)

A Quick One: Pima Air & Space Museum Walkaround
All I can say is “wow”! What a superb air museum this place has evolved into. I’d venture to say this is the best collection west of the US Air Force Museum at Wright Patterson in Dayton, Ohio. Not surprisingly there are many [...]

35 - 1/48 Italeri EA-6B Prowler
Wow what an amazing Kit. I absolutely loved this and the camo desert scheme.
The kit went together great - the only part that needed a bit of work was the underbelly.
