SCRATCH BUILT No. 5
I converted a 1/24 scale Airfix P-51D to a P-51B for a client. Gee-whiz, holy cow, I had no idea how much work was involved when I took on this project, however, day by day it all came together as I had no drawing's nor measurement's to [...]
Video: Tamiya 1:48 F4U-2 Corsair
For a kit that's over 20 years old, Tamiya still holds their own. This was a very fun kit to build and to paint up. I was really surprised by how easy Army Painter paints were to airbrush. I used Vallejo Airbrush Thinner at about a 60-40 [...]

TAMIYA 1:48 F4U-1a Corsair
