Eduard Me Bf 109G-6
W. Nr 165350, flown by Lt Anton Hafner, the C/O of 8./JG 51, Tilsit-Ost, August 1944.
Nothing to say about the kit, other than it's close to perfection. No flash or sink marks worth commenting on, and there was not one instance of my [...]
Modelsvit's P-51H Mustang

Built in 2018.
Another of my dad´s excursions to the modern world.
Hasegawa kit, not one of their best, some fit issues, steps and gaps.

Hi all.
This was number six for the year and the final one for 2019. The 1/48 Hasegawa J2M3 Raiden. I started this one almost two years ago however a disaster at the painting stage shelved it for almost 18 months. I picked it up about [...]
