1/48 Scale Revell He-111 H-4
The Heinkel He-111 is a more modern molding from Revell. The original model came out in 1995, and it was heralded as being a rival to anything Tamiya or Hasegawa were putting out at the time. I did get one back then, but I had yet to build [...]
1/48 Monogram Hawker Typhoon Mk IB
I am calling this one done. Monogram 1/48 Hawker Typhoon Mk IB. The molds for this oldie were dated 1967 or 68 I cant remember now. I remember building it with my dad over 40 years ago. The model is painted with Tamiya acrylics and I added [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 A6M3 Zero 22
I added a CMK interior and some wire to the engine and landing gear but that's about it. I am not sure who made the pilot's body but the head is from Reheat. This is my interpretation of Hiroyoshi Nishizawa's aircraft. This is a [...]
F-100 D Super Sabre (Trumpeter, Eduard, 1:48)
Hello friends, this is one of my older builds from 2014...I like the Sabre very much, also the colorful markings on those old birds. It must have been like riding a bullett when flying with it - can only imagine that 😉
The Kit was [...]
Hasegawa 1/48 Willys Follow Me Jeep
My first attempt at a military vehicle completed several years ago and before owning an airbrush. Had some vague idea about using it for a diorama.but do to "sometimers" the idea has been lost. This kit was a bit of a challenge [...]
Second attempot on the Airfix 1/48 Meteor F. Mk. 8
Second attempt. A better result, having discovered the mine fields the hard way the first venture down the trail.
The secret to the Meteor is: glue the nose cap halves to their respective fuselage halves before further assembly, to get [...]
Hobby Boss FJ-4B
I just finished this VU-7 Fury. I have always loved this scheme, but had never tried it until I picked up the Aeromaster decals and the Hobby Boss kit. A little bit of work, but the kit was easy compared to the planning and masking for the [...]
Just finished, F-100D Super Sabre
Fresh off the bench is my latest, the North American F-100D Super Sabre, a Trumpeter 1/48 scale kit.
I didn't start out to build models of jets, but this my 3rd one now, so I guess they are pretty fun too.
The kit offers 4 marking schemes, [...]
Eduard 1/48 Messerschmitt Bf110C
Shot down during the Battle of Britian, it was actually assigned to a bomber unit. KG55. Interesting history of a fighter operating in a bomber unit, and still getting shot down over England. Some references say it was an "E" [...]
Spitfire MK XII – AIRFIX 1/48
For the first time in more than 25 years I've built an 1/48th scale model. My entire collection is on 72nd scale.
This was a Kris-Kringle present and I decided to build it despite not being my preferred scale.
So here we go! This new [...]
