Worst of the Best? Or: How i rescued a discarded model from certain destruction (Tamiya F4U-1D, 1/72nd Scale)

When was the last time you saw someone build a Brewster Corsair? The story of this model begins in failure. I had gotten this model almost ready for the "Fiddly Bits" in 2004 when it suffered a catastrophic structural failure at [...]

1/72 Academy F/A-18C

This is the Academy 1/72 F/A-18C. I built this OOB with the exception of the ejection seat which I believe was from Quickboost. I painted it with Model Master enamels and the decals are from MAW and were excellent. A very nice kit to build [...]

Revell’s F-101B Voodoo in 1/72 scale

This is my most recent completion: the little Revell Voodoo in 1/72 scale finished in the colors of 444FIS. The kit is very nice even straight out of the box, but I ended up adding additional detail to several places. Firstly, wanted to [...]

Two Italian Indians..

Ok ok, maybe not, how about a couple of 1/72 Italeri AH-64D Longbows... with a touch of modelling applied. Just finished these two, and they were jolly good fun. The camo one is my effort to model an Israeli Saraf, and the grey one, is my [...]

P-40E Red Star 1/72

This is the 1/72 scale Hasegawa P-40E Warhawk in Red Star dress. I built this one mostly because I looked forward to the painting and I was attracted to the red stars for some reason. This was a rather simple build and only seatbelts was [...]
