Accurate Miniatures 1/48 P-51C

When you get some time off, build some models is what I say. Seem to be on a P-51 kick right now and here's my latest off the work bench. Had some trouble closing up the fuselage but believe it was operator head space and not the fault of [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 P-40E Kittyhawk....

Well, good people keep trying to drag me from the dark side to the light... and I always resist. Except for this time- A good kop (whose favorite A/C is the P-40) dared/cajoled me into doing a Kittyhawk. Credit for inspiration also goes [...]

1/48 Monogram / Mattel P-51B Mustang

I've actually considered not going to model shows because it seems I'm a s****r for picking up very old kits. This P-51B is a show purchase that I've just completed as a fun weekend project. It was fun to build,however, it took me longer [...]

Earlier this afternoon my Hien arrived. Here's a photo of the box end... Needless to say, I am very excited about it! This new kit can be summed up in one word. FANTASTIC! Tamiya has produced another 1/48 scale masterpiece. As [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Avro Lancaster PB150 of 625 Sqn RAF 1945

Some pics of my Tamiya 1/48 Lanc tastefully shot against the lurid backdrop of our back-bedroom! - Sorry about that but the finished model is so large it had to go somewhere uncluttered and it was still raining outside. I scratch-built the [...]

Wasn't going to post it, but.....

This is the Gavia 1/48 Westland Lysander. I hated it. Nothing fitted well, the wings to canopy fit was very hard and decals unusable. I used spares. Even photographing it was a nightmare. A random gust of wind blew it over. I lost a [...]
