Junkers Ju 88S-1
The Ju 88S was an attempt to create a faster, multi-role variant with the installation of BMW801D air-cooled radial engines, the deletion of the gondola, and the reduction of the crew to three. The Ju 88S-1 was the bomber version. This [...]
1/48th scale Halifax BIII – Sanger vacuform
Afternoon all,
My first completion of 2025 is Sanger's 1/48th scale Handley Page Halifax BIII, NA222, O-Oscar of 640 Squadron, RAF Leaconfield, Spring 1945.

Tamiya 1/48 Mosquito FB. Mk.VI
The Banff Strike Wing was formed in late 1944. Its main tasks involved striking shipping and land targets along the Norwegian coast.

Tamiya, 1/48, M8 self propeled howitzer
I like those 1/48 vehicles and tanks , and they are very fun to build.
Hasegawa 1/48 Messerschmitt Bf 109G-4
The Bf 109G-4 model depicts the mount of Gustav Rodel. His white 4 has Gruppenkommander markings for II./JG 27. Yet, none of his 50 kills score is presented. TC indicated that by the end of 1943 all Experten followed his example.

A few months ago, I built an ICM 1/72 FW-189C/V-6 and enjoyed it so much that I wanted to build a 1/48 version of the FW-189A. Shortly after, I found the 2024 Great Wall Hobbies kit for the FW-189A-1/A-2 on sale at one of the online hobby [...]
Revell/Monogram 1/48 B-17G Flying Fortress
Although not the state of the art molding, Monogram's venerable Fortress retains the outlines of the iconic bomber.
Hasegawa 1/48 Ki-45 Kai Tei Toryu "Nick"
Hasegawa's Nick is a heaven for mottle camouflage patterns.
