Curtiss Hawk 75N 1/48

Medallion Models resin kit circa 1990 or so. This is still the most accurate kit of the P-36/Hawk75 in this scale. This model represents an aircraft from the Royal Thai Air Force, 85th Wing, Dom Muang 1944. As one can see this is an old [...]

Tamiya Swordfish Mk.II 1/48, Any Color as long it's Black

In my black book there’s a list and in that list a word “Stringbag”, written a long time ago. The ink is all pale and faded-like, but I can cross it now! It wasn’t until I tied my horse in front of the iModeler Saloon many moons [...]

This 1/72 scale F7U-3 Cutlass model was made by Fujimi. It's been 31 years since I built this model and it was my first attempt to use the new "SnJ Spray Metal Aluminum" paint. While attending the IPMS/USA Sacramento, California [...]
