“Midway Group Build” F4F VMF-221
I have not posted for some time and I just wanted to get back into the groove with this add to the “Midway Group Build”. Midway was such an important battle in WWII that I just had to add this as my homage to all those that lost their [...]
Hobby Boss 1/48 F4U-7
I built this as a tribute to a fellow modeller who passed away last December, one day short of his 26th birthday. He wanted to build this aircraft as it had an interesting history: serving with the French Aeronavale, one of the aircraft in [...]
1/48 Hasegawa Junkers Ju-87D-3 Stuka, II / Stg 2, “T6 + EK” winter 1943-44 “Ost Front”
Here's one of the Luftwaffe planes I removed from the display case a few days ago,then took a series of pictures.
I removed 4 Luftwaffe subjects to take pictures of in all. (I'll post the others here in a few more days).
This one is [...]
Hasegawa 1:48 Scale, Nakajima B5N2, Type 97, Model 3, Carrier Attack Plane.
Another kit that was really a great time building.
Typical Hasegawa quality product, and one of their fairly new Japanese subject line. I think these are a labor of love and a source of nation pride! Even the horrible decals of the past [...]
Hobby Boss, 1:48 Scale, IAR-80, Romanian Air Force
Hey Folks!
Over the last couple weeks, I have been pretty busy building...actually got a few finished in time for the IPMS/USA Region One Show and Contest.
I found that, overall, this was a decent little model kit. It went together [...]
The iModeler Spitfire !!
Yep this is the very Airfix 1:48 Spitfire Vb that I won here at iM around two years ago, and only just got around to putting-together...
...now I cannot say I enjoyed the build, and I know that sounds ungrateful but before you head down [...]
Eduard 1/48 Bf 108
Finished this (Whoops- forgot to do the exhaust stains! 🙁 ) just before the Emil, but missed taking pics. I really wondered about the "Taifun" logo being present on top of the camouflage, but found a photo (hopefully not [...]

F-100D Super Sabre 'Pahodee Tiger'
Hello all.
So here's my just completed Trumpeter 1:48 'Hun'. What a kit !, simply fell together with almost no input from me. Only additions are a Quickboost seat and Eduard pre-painted etch set for the pit - neither of which are actually [...]
Tribute to the Princeton and the men and Hellcats of VF 27
The USS Princeton (CVL-23) was lost on October 24th, 1944 at the battle of Leyte Gulf, after a single bomb hit the aft elevator and several 'locked and loaded' Avengers. Eight F6F's from Fighting 27 were on patrol and engaged around 80 [...]
