P-35 & its relation to te RE 2000
This was a nice little build from Special Hobby and it seemed appropriate after the RE 2000. These two airframes share a lot in common

A civilian "Mossie" and Niels Bohr in need of oxygen? Well, that sounds confusing, but interesting: BOAC's DH.98 Mosquito and the "ball bearing runs" Britain-Sweden
Christopher Nolan's latest major film "Oppenheimer" offers many haunting scenes, but one in particular has stuck in my mind for a special reason. The character, who plays the Danish nuclear physicist Niels Bohr, has just arrived [...]
B-24 D 1/72 Academy "The Squaw", Operation Tidal Wave.
(link)
This is my second attempt at the B-24 Liberator model from the Academy brand and I must say that it was one of the most pleasant builds I have had recently. Thanks to the experience from the previous construction, I was already [...]
Sopwith Pup 1/72
The model is built from two sets. Revell - Sopwith Triplane and wings from Sopwith Strutter - TOKO.
Fujimi 1/72 A-6A Intruder
One of my earliest builds once back into the hobby (decades ago) was a Revell Intruder. I still have it, but will toss it now that I've built a real kit! The Fujimi kit has ducting to the blades all the way through front and rear (though [...]
1/72 Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero Type 21
I've always wanted to build a set of 1941-42 IJN carrier airplanes, and picked up a complete set of Hasegawa kits last summer. This is the first to make it to the workbench, a A6M2b that appears to be a 1993 issue. It is finished as Lt. [...]
Lockheed AP-3C(EW) Orion, 10 Squadron RAAF
I completed this one some months ago, it is the Hasegawa P-3C kit converted to an RAAF ISR/EW aircraft.
The base kit was updated with a Hamilton Hobbies EW conversion set as well as additional scratch building of fittings and antennas not [...]
Lockheed LC-130F Hercules
This is the 1/72 Italeri C-130 kit (Testors boxing) built as an LC-130F of the United States Navy.
It represents LC-130F 148321 of VXE-6 which crashed in 1971 at an ice runway 860 miles (1,380 km) from McMurdo Station as a result of two [...]
Lockheed HC-130N Hercules
This is the original tooling of the Airfix C-130 kit. I have built it as a USAF HC-130N CSAR aircraft or as the USAF puts it "the only dedicated fixed-wing Personnel Recovery platform in the Air Force inventory".
To build the [...]
Me 262A - 1960 and 2017 Airfix 1/72 kits
I recently finished a double-build - two 1/72 Me 262A German jet fighters. The reason for the double-build was that I had two kits - a 1960 Airfix kit which I sat on for so long they came out with a much-improved version in 2017, which I [...]
