31 - 1/9 Italeri Norton Manx 500cc
What a beautiful bike and an amazing kit. I absolutely loved this, one of my favourite models so far, I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
I lost the exhaust pipe so had to make one from some sprue, carefully heating it up and [...]
P-47S Thunderhog? for the twenty first century. 1/72 Revell.
This started out as Revells 1/72 P-47M. Until my twisted mind spent too much time figuring out what scheme to choose. The result is a somewhat updated Thunderbolt. Utilizing modern ground attack weapons, some additional bumps and antennae [...]

MiG-21R for the 'Under Another Flag' GB
So just about eight weeks on this one, everything you see (except the roundels & side number) is straight from the Eduard box, no after-market used at all.
Paint is all acrylic and all mixed 'until it looks about right'. And therein [...]
30 - Airfix 1/6 – Skeleton "What I'll look like when my model stash is finally completed." @gwskat
It's Mr Bones, an ancient Airfix kit from 1965. Was fun to do. My wife is a high school biology teacher and so he now hangs happily in her classroom.
Pegasus 1/32 Aerial Hunter Killer from T2
This is my rendering of the aerial hunter killer from Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
The kit went together well and was very Bandai-like in how the parts fit. The only modification was replacement of the molded compressor fans with resin [...]
