1/48 Arma Airacobra P-39N
Definitely not the easiest model to put together but despite the time needed to fix them, the build issues are manageable. I had a lot of fun painting this one. All the markings are painted except the tail numbers because I could not get [...]

Many countries that had the Mig 21 variants provided a vast array of camouflage schemes. I chose the Nigerian Air Force scheme to adorn Eduard's excellent kit.
Tamiya 1:48 M5A1 Stuart
Great kit of an iconic AFV. After it's announcement I couldn't wait to get my hands on this kit. I am a big fan of Tamiya's 1/48 armor models and this is one of the better ones in the series. I built it OOB. It went together flawlessly. I [...]

1/48th scale Halifax BIII – Sanger vacuform
