1/48 USAF Thunderchief

This is my recently completed Revell -Monogram 1/48 F-105F. The last one for 2022. Although it’s a kit from long ago , it still builds up nicely and looks good collecting dust on the shelf . For such a large model it doesn’t have a [...]

Eduard P-39N Airacobra, 1/48. 'Lend-lease Ace Maker'.

I got this kit to be a bit of a quicker build and recover some mojo, and it's generally been a fun build. Whilst the kit is for American P-39Qs, the Eduard set comes with the parts for any of the versions. Foxbot and Montex was used to [...]

GasPatch 1/48 Komet

Here is my GasPatch Me-163, finished at last. I started this kit over 18 months ago, but life got a bit hectic. I used my Christmas break to get it finished. The kit is great. It’s very nicely detailed, especially the cockpit, and the [...]

Chance Vought Corsair F4U-1 Birdcage

My take on a relatively worn South Pacific Birdcage Corsair. Tamiya 1/48 Built Sept. 2022. 2nd build after returning to modeling. Watched a lot of you tube video builds on this model before starting. Lots of helpful info out [...]

A gem Dragon model depicting the innovative rocket propelled fighter. The Scheuch-Schlepper is a CMK resin kit.

Kinetic 1:48 CF-188A Anniversary Hornet

My club has an annual group build theme that culminates with a Show-and-Tell display at our December meeting. Our 2022 theme was "O Canada" comprising any subject built by Canada, manned in Canadian service, or manned by [...]

Hasegawa, 1:48 Scale P-400, "Airacobra"

This is the Hasegawa 1:48 scale P-400. Nice kit. Goes together very well, has really nice detail inside and out. Even the doors fit without too much tweaking. A friend of mine, Nick Buro, was a crew chief on these birds. He was asked [...]
