SCRATCH BUILT Part 2
This was a 1/32 scale "Revell" P-40E kit. I did something unusual by placing several hand made parts together then taking the photos. This was done because it cost money for film, film developing, postage. I had spent more than [...]
USS Colorado in drydock
I wanted achieve a highly weathered effect so I used large amounts of washes and weathering techniques. I wanted to make some parts look like they were covered with clothes so I made these clothes out of tin foil. The dock is scratchbuilt.
SCRATCH BUILDING - Part 1.
I bought the front section of this kit and made some revisions to it. I went "Gung-Ho" as we call it here in America and "hand crafted" several more parts. I had no plans, nor measurements so I just looked at a few [...]

This model kit had next to no flashing, but they had a couple of punch mark's on some of the parts. In fact if you pay attention [...]
Video: Tamiya 1:48 F4U-2 Corsair
For a kit that's over 20 years old, Tamiya still holds their own. This was a very fun kit to build and to paint up. I was really surprised by how easy Army Painter paints were to airbrush. I used Vallejo Airbrush Thinner at about a 60-40 [...]
Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk 22
Hello, fellas. Hope you are all safe and having a good time buiding models at home!
This kit has been reviewed several times. It was great when it came out (1996, IIRC), but has since been surpassed by Airfix’s new releases. The cockpit [...]
