Trumpeter T-84 and T-84BM Oplot
The T-84 is a development of the T-80 tank, replacing the thirsty and very hot turbine engine with a diesel powerpack. The T-84 still retains the legendary power-to-weight ratio of the T-80 family, at 26hp/T. Very early examples were [...]

Revell 1/48 F-117A Nighthawk
My latest build, and like many I do, this kit came cheap to me from a garage sale. This kit was a real sh*t sandwich. Not that much flash, but the molding was terrible. A real putty monster, clamping and at times I wish I had five [...]

AMT Puller Tractor "Blazing Bison"

1/48th Hasegawa F-14A Tomcat
This model has a bit of a story to it. It's a 1/48th Hasegawa F-14A Tomcat that was started over ten years ago by my son who modeled with me for many years starting at an early age. Fast forward to about ten years ago. He had come back [...]
