Opel Blitz, Tamiya 1/48
Being a recent re-starter in the hobby my main focus at the moment is Bf109's, but to add some interest to the planes I have started adding 1/48 vehicles to my stash.
I do have some aftermarket items to make more detailed versions at a [...]
Messerschmitt Bf 109 E-7 Trop 1/48
My first go at airbrushing was the Tamiya Bf 109 E-7 in the all too well known red 8 colours (OK - they are very nice colours).
There has been incorporated a few changes; the step has been carved out as has a few of the cooling outlets [...]
Airfix 1/48 Walrus
I can't rate this kit highly enough. It was an absolute dream to build, and I managed to finish it in less than a month, in no small part due to the fact that I only once had to trim something to fit (I took about .5 of a millimetre from [...]

Thanks Paul !
I also want to take this opportunity and thank [...]
Bombs, rockets … when do we stop making them? ..
Hello to all!
My question is rather rhetorical, and does not require an answer. But I am sure that without bombs our life would have been completely different, and I hope that someday it will be so. (hope dies last )
For now we are doing [...]
1/48 Blackburn Roc
This is the Special Hobby kit and it shares quite a few parts with their earlier Skua kit. One problem this leads to is the Skua had two fuel tanks behind the pilot, the Roc one. SH give you the same parts for the Roc as in the Skua kit. [...]
Tamiya 1/48 P-51 Mustang
Hello,
This is my view of one famous "Blue Noser Bastard From Bodney". Neeedless to say the kit is superb, no need to use any putty at all.
It seems, looking at the few pictures available, this particular bird was kept in good [...]
