Again a rebuild from an old wreck by Eduard. Here it could have turned out much better, but I no longer had the strength or desire for a better result. But it has to be enough for a happy birthday, because this type in 1:48 scale is [...]

I really, really like the slender, wooden, shark like designs of some German WWI scouts [...]
The city of Wellington, New Zealand, lays just across the Tasman Sea from my place in Canberra, Australia. And out near Wellington's airport sits the Stone Street Studios established by Sir Peter Jackson, the acclaimed director of The [...]
