Trumpeter 1/32 P-38 Lightnings
Mark's really nice Trumpeter P-38 reminded me I hadn't shown any of my Trumpeter P-38s. They are:
P-38L OOB other than seat belts and Eagle Edition decals, to do Tommy McGuire's last "Pudgy."
P-38H done as McGuire's first [...]
P-38L Lightning Trumpeter 1/32
Hi Guys,
Here are a few photos of a recent BMF project, with Kitsworld aftermarket decals. I also used the Eduard Big Ed etch set, which added a higher degree of complexity to the build.
Thanks for looking.
Wedell-Williams Air Racer
Jimmy Haizlip's 1932 version of the Jimmy Wedell design.
1/32 Williams Bros. kit which is currently available. I chose the easiest of the three versions available in the original kit, don't know if they are all available in the current [...]
Another Bosworth Beauty: 1/32 Ryan B.1 Brougham – "The MGM plane"
Another one from Bill. From his e-mail:

Bill Bosworth’s scratchbuilt Fokker T-2
Bill would kill me with his bare hands were I to actually refer to him as "the legendary Bill Bosworth," but in fact that title is true, though it should never be used since he would deny all. So just remember, you never read [...]
Messerschmitt Me 262 A-1a by Trumpeter in 1/32 scale
This model represents the Me 262 A-1a flown by Major Walter Novotny, based in Achmer, in November 1944.

How big is big? the H-K B-17G in progress
So, how big is big? This is the H-K B-17G hanging in its storage area on the wall, next to a 1/48 Tamiya Lancaster. Those of you who have the 1/48 :Lanc in your collection think of it as a big model, yes? Not so much here!
Ten days of [...]
iModeler Review: 1/32 Revell Messerschmitt Bf-109G-6
After finishing the last 1/32 Hasegawa Bf-109, an F-2, I told myself I was finally "109ed out," that the airplane as a model held no suprises and no further interest to me. So naturally, when the neighborhood Walter White [...]
