This baby is ready for take-off just before the new year. Took me around 2 weeks, has it's warts and all but nothing dramatic - all in all a great kit; highly recommended.
I wish everyone a happy 2015 and more scale modeling, enjoy.
HobbyBoss 1/48 Ta 152 C-1
The C-1 was the low to medium altitude version of the Ta 152 and in all probability, according to the available references never got to full flying prototype stage.
This project is a bit of a "what-if" and has been finished as [...]
1/48 Italeri Ta-152H-1
Here is my 1/48 Italeri (ex Trimaster, ex Dragon, ex DML) TA-152H-1.
I have always enjoyed the look of the extended wings of the TA-152. In researching for the build, I found that some of the Italeri boxings actually came with engine parts [...]
Hobby Boss 1/48 Ta-152C-11
This is a German mid altitude interceptor that was brought in at the end of the war but to late to be effective. Hobby Boss' kit is a very nice rendition of this big plane. The kit has positional flaps, ailerons, and rudder. This is a very [...]
Tamiya 1/72 FW 190
I very much enjoy building Tamiya kits. Their ease of construction allows me to get to the part of modeling I enjoy most: painting and weathering. In this case I share my build of Tamiya’s 1/72 Focke Wulf Fw-190 A3.
The kit went [...]

Bits and Pieces….Odds and Ends
Soon after retirement I found myself hanging out at at local hobby shop, the kind that had hundreds of models hanging from the ceiling. The owner and I thought it would be cool to have plane being shot down with a real ten foot trail of [...]

The Ta-152 was a short-lived high-level interceptor fielded by the Luftwaffe towards the end of WW II. Developed from the existing Fw-190 D fighter family, it incorporated a new wing, lengthened fuselage and to attain high-altitude / high [...]
Hasegawa 1/32 Focke-Wulf FW 190A-7...
This is the old original Hasegawa 1/32 FW 190A of many years ago, but I decided to post it in spite of its age. I seem to have read that it is still considered a pretty good kit, not completely out of the running against the more up to [...]
Monogram 1/48 Focke Wulf 190A-2…
This is a model I built quite some time ago, but I thought I would throw it into the iModeler brewing pot in case it might interest a couple of folks. But, it is not a P-40! It’s from the old Monogram FW 190A-7 (?) kit that could be [...]
