1/144 DC-9-33F – SAS 75th Anniversary Group Build.
This is an original issue Airfix kit from 1973. I picked it up at a show back in 2017 for $4 US. I dabble in airliners and Douglas products are my favorites. It’s not a bad kit 50 years later. It’s only real failing is that the [...]
The First and the Last: Junkers G.38 & Arado E.555
It might have been another very cold January 1945 night, but for Hauptman Ziegel and his crew, the situation could not have been hotter: there they were, flying at 30,000ft with their Amerikabomber fully loaded. Took off from Bordeaux at [...]
And now for something completely different....
For me, anyway! This is an RX-78-01(N) Local (North American Type) combat robot, or mecha, from the Japanese cartoon series "Gundam". According to the Wiki site, he is 18 meters tall, manned by a single pilot in a torso [...]
Great Wall Hobby 1/144 B-52H Stratofortress (L1008)
The GWH B-52 is a great model. The fit is excellent and the surface details are appropriate for this scale. The only curiosity is that, although the builder has the option to pose the bomb bay doors open, there are no bombs to put in it. [...]

This is the first time I have assembled a Roden kit.
The box art is attractive, but the kit itself has a nice atmosphere when completed.
The accuracy of the parts was good and they took shape quickly.
However, because the surface of the [...]
1/144 Minicraft C-54/DC-4 in Early SAS Colors
I don't normally build airliners, and I never build anything that has a natural metal finish, but I wanted to do something for the SAS 75th Anniversary Group. I had the Minicraft C-54 kit lurking around, and I was able to find some decals [...]
A big fighter plane very small: F-14D, VF 101 "Grim Reapers".
About the F-14D in 1:144 scale
This F-14D is the first in a small series of this large fighter aircraft. Altogether five Tomcats will be built, two each in 1/48th and 1/72nd scale and one in the smallest scale of 1/144, which can be seen [...]

Been long since I posted anything here . . . All thanks to COVID-19 . . .
My latest work . a Minicraft 1/144 Super Constellation in Air India colors.
The kit is a simple build and the parts are few. Very little [...]
Revell 1/144 Junkers G.38

This is my Revell 1/144 Junkers G.38, finished wearing its last scheme.
It was a large German four-engine transport aircraft which first flew in 1929. Two examples were constructed in Germany. Both aircraft flew as a [...]
