1/48 Monogram P-39D Airacobra

Hello, For my first post, I propose you the old but nice model of the P-39 from Monogram. The cockpit layout is mostly handmade. I also used Eduard photoetch for the landing gear. The decoration comes from an Aeromaster decal sheet that I [...]

Fw190 for the Jerry Crandall Memorial GB.

This is the 1994 Tamiya kit, built without any modifications or AM other than the decals from Eagle-Cal sheet 48-173. Painted with Tamiya acrylics and Mr. Color lacquers (and Xtracolor enamels for the fabric control surfaces). My third [...]

A quick Triebflügel

I don’t normally build “Luftwaffe 1946” aircraft but I saw this kit in my local hobby shop on sale and couldn’t resist. I thought it would make an amusing subject – so the brand is well named. I have long been aware of the [...]

Second go at a Be2c for a friend who's Great Grandfather flew them. Very tricky mounting top wing and an absolutely massive rigging job.Not perfect by any means. I wouldn't want to tackle Airfix's 1/72 version of this! It's a lovely [...]

1/48 ICM Do-17Z German Light Bomber

This is the ICM 1/47 D0-17Z-2 German Light Bomber. I used Eduard’s LOOK instrument panel as the only add-on to this build. The decals worked very well and the clear parts fit perfectly. This was a fun build of the German light bomber [...]

VF-84 F4U-1D Corsair

A little throwback today. Since I haven't finished anything in awhile I thought I'd dig into the archives. I posted a few of these pics on other sites here and there but never here. 1/48 Tamiya F4U-1D Corsair finished around 1999/2000. [...]

Eduard Bf 109E-4, 1/48. 'Emil Over Britain'.
