Hasegawa Spitfire Mk VIII 'Hava Go Jo!!' in 1/48
When I first built this kit it was hot off the press & being well & truly bagged on the internet.
I don't usually run a ruler over my models, preferring to the eyeball Mk.1 to gauge accuracy. In this case, the critics were right [...]
Modeling for FUN? Are you crazy? My Kid’s Emily flying boat.
Well I forget how long ago it was, must be 10 years ago, I bought my then 15 year old kid a Hasegawa Emily I found cheap while browsing the LHS. He always liked flying boats since he caught my modeling bug early on. Problem is this kit is [...]
Old Hasegawa A-4E 1/32
Just built this for my neighbor who was in the Navy back in the 60's. Wanted to give him something from that era.
Dauntless, Done… SBD-4, 1/48, Hasegawa
After much ado and diligent effort over the past two and and a half weeks, I am calling my SBD-4 Dauntless 'done'...for a fairly unskilled builder like me it has been a challenge but I am pleased overall with the result which I humbly [...]

Hasegawa / Alleycat 1:32 , Kawasaki Ki-100 Goshikisen
Finished this one last week.
The Hasegawa Ki-61 kit with the Alleycat Ki-100 resin fuselage. A first glance at the resin gave me the impression that I was in for an easy build. Nice panel lines, no bubbles, nice detail. The stuff looks the [...]

1/32 Bf 109G-6 of 8./Jg1, 1944
Here is the kit that got my on my large-scale building bing, the mighty Hasegawa 109G-6! I built this kit very soon after it came out back in 2002 and is still in my collection, along with 2 others I've built since. Yes the kit has a few [...]
1/48th Hasegawa F4U-5 In The Markings Of VF-44 In 1949
I just finished this Corsair yesterday. It's the 1/48th Hasegawa F4U-5 done in the 1949-era markings of VF-44. The kit is very well engineered with the exception of the fitment of the cowling where it joins with the fuselage. The cowling [...]
P-40E Aleutian Tiger
I built this a while ago but thought it would be good for my first iModeler post.
This aircraft is from the 343rd FG, 11th FS in the Aleutians 1942. I thought this was different in that there were no blue surrounds on the national [...]
