1/72 scale Hasegawa Beaufighter MK VI
This model was built 11 years and was one of the first 1/72 scale projects I completed in this scale. After years of thinking 1/48 scale was the only thing worth building I was presently surprised how much fun this scale could be, [...]
Italeri C-130A Hercules, 36 SQN RAAF
As you may have figured out by now, I like to build larger aircraft types in 1/72.
This is the Italeri C-130E/H kit (1/72) built as a C-130A from 36SQN RAAF. Decals are from an Aussie Decals sheet and the A model propellers and fuel tanks [...]
B707 Tanker – RAAF 33 SQN RAAF
This is an Airfix E-3 kit built as a B707. I used the JT3 engines from the kit and left off the AEW specific parts. Decals and tanker conversion parts are from Hawkeye Models Australia.
Hercules C.1 XV292
Finished this not long ago after it languished on the shelf of doom for 18 months. As it had been masked up for so long it was difficult to remove the cockpit masking. Patched up the cracked paint as best I could.
The kit is the original [...]
1/72 Italeri CANT Z.501 Gabbiano

In the belly of the whale
I'd intended to build this Airfix 1/72 LFG Roland C-II Walfisch (whale) with minimal upgrading, but with only giant pegs and a blobby aircrew in the cockpit (not surprising for a 1965 tooling) the interior needed a bit of help. Referring [...]
MiG-15bis in Korea (Eduard 1/72)
Eduard ProfiPack kit in 1/72 scale. Painting scheme relates to Korea War in 50th and maybe this aircraft was flown by a soviet pilot.
I've expected a better quality, but the kit is quite good anyway. Also I've added navigation lights on [...]
P-47D Tamiya 1/72 scale
What can I say, I like P-47s, and I love the Tamiya kit, it is simply an absolute jewel of a kit.
This particular aircraft represents one flew by Lt. Chuck Olmsted of the 353rd FS / 354th FG.
Painting was done with Alclad duraluminum, [...]

1/72nd scale C-17A Globemaster III – Combat Models Vacuform
I started this back in November of 2014, and after 8 months of blood, sweat and tears, I've got my big C-17 finished.
There are two kits currently available in 1/72nd of the C-17: one being the Anigrand Craftworks resin kit, and the other [...]
