Tooth correction with a difference: a biting Bf 109D!

The Bf 109 is with about 33,000 examples one of the most built aircraft in aviation history, so it is not surprising that the design has been produced in numerous variants. The best known are the series which, starting with the E-version, [...]

70’s vintage Hasegawa 1/32 Ki-43 Hayabusa

Finished 15 years after her purchase is this 1/32 Hasegawa Ki-43-II Hayabusa. The old Hase kit is really showing it's age, but now that I did all this work to this one, i'm sure a new tool release is not far off. It came with an Eduard [...]

Baby Blitz...1/48 Junkers Ju188A-2 Rächer, II./KG6

And another one finished. Started with Dragon´s "E" kit but then stole the engine from one of their Ju88 kits and built an "A". Eduard seatbelts added, EZ Line for the antenna wires and brake lines, AIMS decals for the [...]

Life-Like Hobby Kits 1/40 105mm Howitzer

Hi folks, Well, here's a real blast from the past. This kit was initially released by Adams Models in 1958, re-boxed by UPC in 1963 and then re-boxed by Life-Like in 1974. I've lost a few parts over the years so I had to scratch build the [...]

1/72 Messerschmitt Bf 109E-4

Picked this up at the local toyshop. One half of the Airfix Dogfight Doubles (the other being the Spitfire Mk I that I am currently working on). Pretty fun kit. Only a couple of small crises during the build - temporarily lost a tail-plane [...]

The "Topaz" an 85 ft. 1960's Yacht

My Covid 19 project (everyone has one) was to convert an old Lindberg Coastal Patrol Boat (USCG) into something a little different. I had already done the original version (50's), and a PG Patrol Motor Gunboat (70's) , and had a spare [...]

Hasegawa Spitfire MK XI PA-944

Another stash reduction build during the pandemic stay at home guidelines. This is my attempt at converting a MK IX Spitfire into a MK XI representing PA-944 used by the USAAF. After seeing the documentary concerning this aircraft, and its [...]

Mitsubishi 1MT Type 10, 1/50 UPC. Empire of Japan

The Type 10 torpedo bomber was designed by Sopwith designer Herbert Smith for the Japanese Navy. Built in 1922, 20 were built, it was difficult to fly and it could not land on the carrier with the torpedo loaded. They were eventually [...]

Banzai!…1/48 Mitsubishi Ki-51 Type 99 “Sonia” Imperial Japanese Army , Empire of Japan Group Build

12/2020 After a bunch of German stuff this year it´s time to move to another Axis Power. And it did fit perfectly for the Empire of Japan group build. Nichimo kit, first released in 1975, detail is nice and fit is good, only the canopy [...]
