Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate
This is the Hasegawa 1/32 scale Nakajima Ki-84 Hayate kit, and represents a machine operating from Formosa in late 1944 and early 1945. I built this two years ago, and it was my first attempt at a kit in this scale, and my first attempt at [...]
Eduard 1/32 Bf-109E-4
Eduard's Bf-109E-4, done as Galland's airplane. usd the Squadron vac canopy to correct the early-release incorrect canopy.
In 1984 I had the opportunity to meet Galland (along with Gunther Rall and Walter Krupinski) at the AFAA [...]
Douglas Bader Hurricane, 1/32
This is Bader's second Hurricane I when he commanded 242 Squadron during the Battle of Britain. PCM 1/32 kit. OOB, but modified since (as usual) the Caruana drawings left a bit to be desired in the accuracy department.
Had the [...]
Roden 1/32 Fokker Dr.I – Manfred von Richtofen
Probably one of the most recognizeable airplanes in history. Done back in 2004 when the kit first came out, using the Cutting Edge decal sheet. Lots of good history in the sheet, I think this is from the research the most accurate look [...]
Roden 1/32 Nieuport 28
Done a few years ago when it first came out. Markings are for Eddie Rickenbacker's airplane. A nice, simple kit without a lot of rigging, good for someone just starting in the WW1 genre. To me the Nieuport 28 is one of the most [...]
WNW Fokker D.VII – a tease
Here are three pictures of my recently-completed WNW 1/32 Fokker D.VII (Fokker-built) in Willi Gabriel's markings. There will be a full review over at Modeling Madness on Wednesday.
Kit. Of. The. Year.
Wingnut Wings Junkers J.1
Keeping with the WWI theme, this is my first Wingnut Wings model. Another outstanding kit from the New Zealand modelers. I used Tamiya acrylics, as usual, for all of the colors. I paid particular attention to getting a 'used' look to the [...]
1/32 F-4j
I added resin seats, made some homemade number to get Pettigrew's mig killer, added some resin burners, added CE intakes, and nautilis scab plates.
Thanks,
Rob
Yellow 1o's big brother – the Rutman 1/32 conversion
Did this back in about 2004, it's my favorite of all the big Wurger models I've done. Used the now out of production Eagle Editions sheet. The Rutman conversion (forward fuselage and engine plug and prop/spinner) is now available from [...]
Another 1/32 Hasegawa 190
Hauptmann Walter Nowotny's Fw-190A-5 of JG 54, around the time he scored his 250th victory. Decals from Eagle Cals, seat from Eagle Editions with molded-in seat belts. JG 54 is my favorite unit for doing off-beat field-applied [...]
