1/48th CH-21 Shawnee
Hello fellow modelers,
This is my first post, and I thought I'd start with one of my recent builds, the Italeri 1/48th scale CH-21. I'm a retired Army aviator, so I thought it fitting to start with a helicopter. Overall, this was a nice [...]
F4U-1A Corsair Arii 1/48
Hi all , it's been a while since my last posting but here we are. This is an Arii kit of the brilliant F4U Corsair, it seems strange for me to say that as a lifelong modeller I've never built one of these before in any scale so when I saw [...]
Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-5, Wilde Sau, Eduard, 1/48
This one has been waiting for the last few details for some time, and was actually started in October 2018! I really liked the colors of “white 1” from JG300, but sadly my airbrush skills were not up to the thin lines needed for that [...]
April 2019 random draw winner

Spitfire Mk IX. 316 Sqdron. Italeri 1/48
Hi guys.
This is my last victim, a Spitfire from 316 sqd. RAF.
After bult the Hasegawa model of the same item, this one from Italeri looks a litle bit "less", but has been a very satisfactory built.
Hope you like it.

The Spit-Racer
I had this half built Otaki 1/48th scale Spitfire stashed in my shelf of doom, until I saw on the internet a guy from Melbourne who scratch built some 1/32 aircraft (Spitfire, Messerschmitt and MiG 15) into some sort of race cars. I liked [...]
1/48th Boeing B-52H Stratofortress - update
It's been a while since I updated you on my progress with Sanger's massive 1/48th scale vacuform B-52H project.
Since last time I've worked on the fuselage, scratch-building the main undercarriage bays, as well as adding numerous [...]
Tamiya 1/48 F-14A Tomcat/ “Miss Molly”… VF-111 “Sundowners”
the Grumman F-14 Tomcat was the US Navy's primary fighter for 35 years from the early 70's till 2006...it came out of Mcnamara's failed F-111 project...in fact from the intakes back the F14 is the F-111 though the Navy added the second [...]
B-25 “Gunship” double build in the making
I would like to show you pictures of two B-25G in 1:48 which are currently under construction.
Both are based on the excellent Accurate Miniatures shapes and are equipped with different after market parts.
At the moment I have closed all [...]
Yellow Nose Airfix Spitfire 1/48
This is a kit I built a couple of years back. It is the 2015 release (2nd pressing) of the 1/48 Airfix Spitfire Mk I. It is mostly OOB with the exception of some Eduard RAF early style harnesses. I learned the hard way that unless the [...]
