1/72 scale modeling

Revell 1/72 British Vosper M.T.B.

To me this was one of the more confusing boats of a late WWII (?) design to be modeled. It's a British design, U.S. built, for Russia, but doubtful that it saw WWII service. Somewhere along the line, one or two were [...]

Harrier GR.3, Airfix 1/72nd

So here's this week's model. It's the Airfix kit. Problem free build. The pilot is from PJ Productions and the bombs are from the Revell Tornado GR.1 kit. I used some plastic card and superglue to correct the tip of the tail (Kit tail has [...]

The two most rescued aviators in model aviation history ! These lucky fellows are just two of the figures that come with every Monogram Hu-16 Albatross. Anyone who has built the Hu-16, has these guys laying around somewhere, remember [...]

BAE Hawk 1/72 Italeri

This is Italeris kit of the Finnish version of BAE Hawk. It has somewhat better detailing than the usual Italeri kits. I only did some minor detailing and weathering with a graphite pencil.

F-20 Tigershark 1/72 Hasegawa

This is another nice kit from Hasegawa, built out of the box. Unfortunatley I used Johnson floorpolish as clear coat on this model, and put too thick layers of it, so the polish has cracked in some places (you can see it under the cockpit [...]

Panzerhaubitz 2000

Or PzH 2000 to it's friends. This is a 155 mm self-propelled howitzer. Developed for the German army. It is also used by Italy, Netherlands and Greece. It has a maximum range of 35 km for standard rounds & 40+ km with assisted rounds. [...]

SAAB J35ö Draken 1/72

This is the Hasegawa 1/72 scale kit of the Austrian version of J35 Draken. It is a splendid kit and a joy to build. It is built out of the box, with the pitot tube replaced with stainless wire.
