Hasegawa F-14D Tomcat, Vandy 1, 1/48 scale
Hello iModeler! Long time no post. Here is my first commissioned build.
My client requested it be in flight with a full load of ordnance. That made mounting kind of tricky but I found a way in the end. I bent a clear acrylic rod to a [...]
FW190 D9 Tamiya 1/48
Hello all. Firstly thank you very much for the warm welcome to the site and for your encouraging comments on my first post.

Hi There,
For your delectation and delight I bring you my build of the... Ahem... accurate Trumpeter Sea Vixen OOB except fot some tape belts and of course Decals from XtraDecal as the kits ones were very wrong.

Hobby Craft 1:48 Scale Morane-Saulnier Ms-406C
Hobby Craft kits... What can I say that hasn't already been said? Soft on detail, shape issues, sometimes out and out incorrect... However, they did subjects that many other main stream manufacturers did not, or would not do. While the [...]

Academy 1/48 P-47N Thunderbolt
This was a fun build! I've never had much luck with Academy's decals, so when I found the cool Hawaii ANG sheet, I was set.
Although maybe basic by some standards, I think the cockpit builds up nicely after a wash and drybrushing. Same [...]
Me-410 Hornet, 1/48 Pro-Modeler
This is an older build, that is totally out of the box. I know the flaws of the kit but all that aside I remember it as a generally satisfactory build and there is no mistaking what it is. The fit was generally good, and overall went [...]
Sukhoi Su-27P, Ukraine VVS.
Hobbyboss 1/48
Begemot stencils
Foxbot Decals
J's Work masks
Wolfpack bang seat
A quarantine-build that didn't really "fight" me, but it did struggle a bit.
The kit goes together pretty smoothly. No huge steps or areas where you [...]
