Eduard 1:48 Grumman F6F-5 (Late) ProflPACK Kit #8224
Its an Eduard kit so nuff said. I used the PE but this is probably my last time as when you close the canopy not much is seen. These were attached with Lepage 12, 5 Minute Epoxy. The resin wheels are a big improvement over the plastic [...]
Focke Wulf 190D variants: My 1/48th scale Dora line
The FW 190D is a favorite model of mine thanks to its purposeful poise and proportions in the 1/48th scale that give the look of the real aircraft. Over the years, nearly two dozen Doras accumulated in my collection. The majority are [...]
P-39s Airacobra and lead corrosion
Eduard's 1/48 P-39 Airacobra variants are excellent kits that are well detailed and look like the famous aircraft when assembled. I took out these models from my display cabinet where they rested for two decades.

VMF(N)-513, late Nov 52. #23 was the first Whale to achieve a kill during the type deployment on the Korean War early that month and a second kill on Jan 53, I decided to show it during the period in between those events when the squadron [...]

Hellcat II
Built this at the same time as the Hurricane I posted here a few weeks ago but only got around to finishing it this morning. Fairly straightforward build, could have done without the separate fin-tip antenna post which was instantly [...]
Nocturnal Predator...1/48 Grumman F6F-5N Hellcat, VMF(N)-533 "Black Mac's Killers", USMC
Hellcat double completed, after the F6F-3 now a -5N.
Eduard Weekend Edition released in 2016. Sadly the fuselage code F(N)4 is oversized, also the fuselage number 21 and the cowl number 88 of the second included scheme are. Funny thing is [...]
