Martin PBM 3R Mariner, A70-11, 40 Sqn RAAF Townsville Qld 1943.
1/72 Mach2, I modified the turrets to convert to a transport, sanded and polished the canopy and painted on the frames, strengthened the fuselage join between the wings with a strip of cloth and added the mooring rails to the nose, [...]
Corsair A7D – Commission Build
A major departure from my usual subjects - I tend to stick to 1/32 WWI aviation, but this 1/72nd A7D was built under commission, as a presentation piece for the pilot who flew the original, pictured below. He was an RAF Test Pilot, on an [...]
Tamiya 1/72 scale P-47D
Pilot: Lt. Robert E. Wagner 9th AF 510th FS - 405th FG. St. Dizier France 1944.
I actually do build other aircraft, but P-47s are just so much fun, especially when the kits are this nice !
For this build, I used Alclad Dura aluminum, [...]
It’s Twins!… well, sort of?

LaGG-3 in winter colors (Roden 1/72)
Winter LaGG-3 series 35 in 1/72 scale. Original kit by Toko, produced by Roden nowadays. This is an old kit back from the late 90s. The kit quality is far, far from good – it took me two months to get it done. Completely not suitable as [...]
Hasegawa 1/72 E7K1 Type 94 Alf
This was a fairly straight forward build. It did require thinking through the final assembly and rigging sequence to make sure I could handle the model carefully while getting all the fiddly bits and rigging installed. Because I used after [...]
Brengun 1/72 scale Supermarine Spitfire Mk.Vb Floatplane
I just finished this for the Water Wings group build.
It's the Brengun kit with the brengun Photoetch set for the cockpit and the ladder on the side. I also took the exhaust and oil cooler from a sword spitfire kit. The paints are all [...]
