Revell 1/72 U.S. Navy Swift Boat Mk.1
My recently completed Revell 1/72 Swift Boat Mk.1.
Once again this is mainly brush painted. The only spray paint used is the under coat red on the lower hull.
The flag was printed off on printer paper, folded in half over some 0.25mm [...]
Heller 1/72 Caudron 714
The Caudron Renault C.710 series was one of the emerging types out of a French 1936 specification, calling for a light fighter of wooden construction that could be built rapidly in large numbers without upsetting the production of existing [...]
Hawker Hurricane mk.I
Airfix 1/72 early fabric winged hurricane. Kit decals.
Grumman SA-16A Albatross 1/72
I have always made some effort to build Brazilian theme models, so I have several items in my collection. They usually are hard to build due most of the kits have some differences in comparison to the real thing operated in Brazil, so [...]
29 - 1/72 Hasagawa VF-1S Strike Valkyrie
I love Macross (RoboTech) kits, they really are nicely made and I had so much fun with this.
I was having problems with the AK weathering pencils and watercolour pencils so I challenged myself on this build to weather only with the [...]
AMP 1/72 X-20 Dyna-Soar

(link)
What can you say about the Mustang model from Tamiya? A model from over twenty years ago, which I believe, defends itself very well today. After an exciting end of the year, I took up something simple and nice. Santa came out to [...]
Revell's 1/72 A-20C Havoc/Boston III.
This is an old build that I made back around 1988. I remember having a great time building this kit. I recently gave this a good clean and repaired a missing aerial and loose main wheels. Not too bad for a model made 35 years ago.
Back in [...]
Gloster Gladiator 1:72 – a little Matchbox nostalgia
I started it about two years ago as a joy model (Matchbox Gloster Gladiator), then it ended up in a box, because the Alclad primer didn't want to bind, I still don't know why. Even after two years it was still a bit tacky (!). I had some [...]
1/72 Italeri OH-58D Kiowa Warrior
The OH-58 Kiowa is a single-engine, four-blade helicopter designed for the US Army primarily as a scout aircraft. In addition to its observation role, the OH-58D is capable of carrying munitions on two hard-points and performing direct [...]
