Eduard Tempest Mk.V Dual Combo, 1/48.

Recently I've decided to improve my photography and buy a lightbox, today it arrived! So as I showcase my previous builds this is the first one with some shiny now photos. Eduard's Tempest Mk.V... An interesting kit to say the least, this [...]

Kinetic 1/48 Pucara

Kinetic's best kit yet. Absolutely wonderful. There's a WIP on this in the WIP Group and it's also in the Falkland Islands group. Full review next Thursday March 25 at Modeling Madness. Buy. In. Confidence.

Red Tulip...1/48 Focke-Wulf Fw190A-5/U7, JGr Ost

Finished in 2018. Hasegawa kit, painted with Gunze and Tamiya acrylics, EZ Line for antenna, Ultracast wheels. After starting to apply the kit decals and the tulip leaves, my dad and I realized, that Hasegawa got them wrong. There are not [...]

Tamiya P-38G Lightning, 1/48. 'Miss Virginia'

My first of the Operation Vengeance trio in 1/48 was this Lightning, an amazing kit and probably the best engineered model I've made to date. There isn't a lot of negatives to say about this kit, in fact whilst I completed this model in [...]

Red Tulip...1/48 Messerschmitt Bf109K-4, Stab/JG52

Built in 2017. Hasegawa kit, Eagle Cals which were brittle as usual and some repainting was neccessary, EZ Line for aerials, plastic rods and lead wire for brake lines, Gunze and Tamiya acrylics. There are several slightly different [...]

1/48 JU-87R-2 Stuka, Hubert Polz’s desert snake, 6./St.G 2, 1941, Tmimi, Libya

This is my interpretation of Hubert Polz's JU-87R-2 Stuka while stationed at Tmimi, Libya in 1941. There are only a few (4, I believe) photo's of this aircraft, so a lot of the scheme is speculative (even the color of the snake is [...]

Luft´46...1/48 Horten H IX/Ho229 V7

Built in 2018. Zoukei-Mura kit, painted with Gunze and Tamiya acrylics. My dad thought it would be a shame to hide all the nice detail, so he decided to keep it naked and show a fictious not yet finished prototype. Besides that, the fit of [...]

TAMIYA A6M5 Zero 1:48

It's funny, but you will forgive me (I hope): since I returned to this hobby after more than 40 years of absence, I am amazed to retrace paths that others younger than me have already traveled. I have rediscovered a state of the art light [...]

Tamiya G4M1 ‘Betty’ & A6M3 ‘Hamp’ 1/48, Operation Vengeance Collection

I like to think I know a fair bit about WW2 aviation, but I didn't expect how massive the G4M1 was until the box arrived in the post. At a wingspan of 41.6cm, and a fuselage length of 51.8cm, this model dwarfs anything else I've made and [...]
