Trumpeter 1/32 Swordfish Mk. I
With the wings swept back in the parking position, Trumpeter's Swordfish becomes a challenging kit to build. The wings exert a tremendous pressure on the hinges, tail unit and wheels. The result though is well worth the effort.
Hasegawa 1/32, Douglas Skyhawk A-4F, "Lady Jessie"
Kit is quite old, and not so fun to build, but I managed to complete it. Raised panel lines are surely not my favorites...

Trumpeter 1/32 F6F-5 Hellcat
Here are the highlights and the downfalls of Trumpeter's Hellcat. The model captures well the stalky outlines of this great fighter. Wing fold part design is superb. Easy to install and does not strain plastic hinges. A tow tractor kit is [...]
