Freiherrn Manfred von Richthofen
In my apartment for years hanging an art print of a
Jagstaffel from the First World War, it is to see the Fokker Dr.I pilot Manfred Freiherr von Richthofen.
I was interested in the plane of the coloring ago recreate it, the kit was a [...]
1/72 Airfix Supermarine Walrus
Nice little kit, with fictitious paint job, possibly of that era, that I just had to do.
1/72 Airfix Grumman Duck
This one is modeled after Kermit Week's Duck, at "Fantasy of Flight", a little south of Orlando, Florida. Oddly enough, the decals were from an old Esci sheet, including the noseart. For a bi-plane (and an Airfix), it was a [...]
RAF “V’ Bombers. Valiant, Vickers, and Vulcan
I was commissioned to build the three "V" bombers by a gentleman that grew up in Lincolnshire, England. He remembered the "V" bombers when he was younger. He asked that I do all three models in the same scale and in the [...]
1/72 Italeri Eurofighter EF-2000
Italeri is probably known for it's crisp molding, and ease of construction, and this kit was no exception. It was a fairly quick build, and gave me another opportunity to play with a "Tiger Meet" scheme.

I hope you like it.

1/72 Airfix Short Sunderland
This was another old kit that I decided to "experiment" on. Since I already had a 2nd kit to build "stock", I thought I'd back date this to an earlier Mark. This required moving the top turret and changing the hull. [...]
1/72 Matchbox F-86 Sabre
One of our club's themes, was "Snake Bit", or, "something with a snake". (I think the theme was chosen by a car builder, with a Shelby Cobra). Wanting to do something quick (and it shows), I chose the Matchbox F-86 [...]
Convair 240, 1/72 Mach II kit. United Air Lines
A few articles back I responded to a contributor that I am of the "I know where the mistakes are and I am not going to tell you" philosophy.
Well, here is an example...
This is the Mach II 1/72 kit of the Convair C-131. First let [...]
