Colorful Javelin
Hello,
I'd like to present the Airfix Gloster Javelin FAW.9 1/72. I found this kit in my stash and with some free time on my hand decided to build it. A flawless build by the way - no problems at all.
Then came the painting and I got a [...]
1/72nd Hasegawa P5M Marlin
This is my 2010 build of the old 1/72nd Hasegawa kit of the P5M Marlin patrol seaplane. It's built just as it came in the kit with the exception of the markings which were replicated from a photo. The kit itself is old dating back to the [...]
Academy P-38J 1/72
This is a 2009 build. I was still finishing in semi-gloss back then, and didn't do much weathering - just some turbo exhaust and fuel stains, no panel wash or other shading/weathering.
I thought the rocket launcher tubes were interesting [...]
Testors B-25 1/72
The B-25 is my favorite WWII aircraft - just love the lines - everything about it. This is an old Testors kit. Went together pretty well, although had to shim up one side of the horizontal stabilizer to get it level. Added a seat for the [...]
Academy 1/72 B-17f “Wabash Cannonball”
the venerable B-17f “The pride of Seattle” as it would have looked in June 1943 while part of the 91st heavy bombardment wing stationed at Bassingbourn at Cambridgeshire U.K...in the livery of “Wabash Cannonball” painted by Sgt. [...]
Hurricane Mk2c
This kit is in 1/72 from Revell, and was my secret santa present from work!
It isn't the sort of subject I would normally model as my collection is fairly modern, so I decided to do it slightly different. The right side is the desert camo [...]
Airfix 1/72 Dornier Do17z (reveal)
The completed model of Airfix's newly moulded Dornier Do17 which was voted for the Keep Calm and Vote Wisely
Have to admit I really enjoyed building this and am surprised at the level of detail involved with the kit. However the cockpit [...]
SMER IL-2 1/72
This was one I finished in 2012. Not a bad kit, but the decals shredded so went to spares box. Also scratch built the oil cooler (at least I supposed that's what the cylindrical thing on the starboard wing is) and the tail counter weight, [...]
Fujimi F-14A 1/72
I finished this kit in 2011. I had 2 Tomcats in my stash, and wanted to build one "turkey feathers" (flaps, gear, hook, airbrakes all out) and wings extended, and one swept and clean. This one is the first (kinda obvious!).
It [...]

My father [...]
