Tamiya F4F-4 Wildcat 1/48
The Tamiya Wildcat was a nice kit to build, clever parts breakdown and no fit problem (as with most Tamiya kits); the only extra I put in to it was some details in the cockpit. There was a lot of talk about the floor in this kit (as the [...]

Eduard 1/48th Nieuport 11 'Bebe' Profipack
Hello iModelers!
I thought I would initiate my participation with some images of my most recent Nieuport build. Great little kit with no serious fit issues, but- as with all Eduard Nieuports I've built- the cockpit benefits from a little [...]
