Classic Kit: Airfix 1/72 Vought F4U Corsair No. 115 1964

This is an older build but I did document the building process. I had spare parts from Hasegawa and True Details that I used to add detail. I used a Squadron vac-form canopy as well. As can be seen the clear parts are dismal as is the [...]

Haunebu II Flying saucer (Revell, 1:72)

Another job leaves the desk. The Revell Hanunebu II saucer promises easy and fast pleasure layout, with many opportunities for sci-fi and what if lovers. I especially loved its massiveness in it (in a rather unusual way from a model). The [...]

Sword 1/72 Fairey Gannet AEW.3

I thoroughly enjoyed this build. My second Sword kit and it went together really well. You need to take a little care but it's worth it. Primed with Tamiya Neutral Grey. Painted with ColourCoats Sky Type S, Extra Dark Sea Grey, FAA/RAF [...]

The model was part of Revell's 1/72 series of WW1 and WWII fighters issued in the early 1960s. I learned about the exploits of Wildcats at Wake Island in the 5th grade and I had to build a model of it. This kit was later issued in a 3 [...]

1/72 Fw200 C-4/C-5/C-8 Condor Bomber Revell (04678). Please note, that some parts to finish this build are from Revell 04387 Fw 200 C-5/C-8 Condor kit. Highly recommended, both of them! DISCLAIMER: I am NOT! being paid to promote this [...]

Spitfire Valways good!

I sit down to write this article again during a hurricane. However, this time I will not make up a fictionalized story, because we have a live coverage on tape that you can hear from Lieutenant Richard L. Lampe. This pilot flew in 2FS, [...]

Classic Kit: Matchbox Messerschmitt Me110 No. PK-115 1:72 1976

The Matchbox Me110 is a simple kit as is common with their line of kits. It is molded in yellow, and brown and does not have the deeply engraved panel lines (well maybe a few) common with earlier kits. I built it out of box and marked [...]
