Sino-Japanese War...1/48 Beechcraft D17 Staggerwing, Chinese Nationalist Airforce
So, here´s my dad´s latest completion.
Typical Roden kit so it didn´t turn out "perfect". Markings with Iliad Design decals. Seems nobody knows the Chinese camo colours, if they had any specific ones. Usually in kit and decal [...]
Tamiya 1/48 P-51B Mustang
Hot off the bench is the classic Tamiya P-51B that still represents a very nice model. However, I am looking forward to seeing Eduard's' new P-51B release so as to make a comparison between the two. Typical Tamiya, parts fit and the only [...]
Focke-Wulf Fw 189 A-2
Great Wall Hobby's 1/48 Fliegende Auge (Flying Eye) is a challenging build. The kit is highly detailed and appears to have accurate dimensions. Yet, instructions lack essential information and subassemblies such as, the cockpit and engines [...]

Unlike the real aircraft where the CFTs were made from the same materials like [...]
Airfix 1:48 Hawker Hunter F.6
Not a long story to tell for this one. The Airfix 1:48 Hunters are pretty nice kits; they've got some clever engineering, especially in the intake area, although it's not done with the finesse one would find in a recent Tamiya kit. I added [...]
Airfix Fairey Gannet AS4 1/48.
Hi folks, long time no posts and I apologise about that, life has changed for me. My marriage broke down and I am now living with my dear old mum down in Devon. I now have a man cave to build in and astash to play with.
Anyhow, I saw this [...]
Medic!...1/48 Austin K2Y Ambulance
After some pause, time for a 1/48 vehicle between all the aircraft.
Tamiya kit oob, thanks to the quality it was an easy and straight forward build.
