Hasegawa F-86A Sabre
This is the 1/48 Hasegawa F-86 Sabre, using the Cutting Edge resin conversion set and Meteor Productions decals to create an F-86A Sabre.
The first prototype, 45-59597, had been completed in August 1947, powered by a Chevrolet-build [...]
Hasegawa F-8H Crusader
Here is the Hasegawa F-8 done as an F-8H using the full Cutting Edge conversion set and Meteor Productions decals.
There's an old saying that "it's better to be lucky than good." The Chance Vought F-8 Crusader series was not [...]
“Le Crouze” – the last Crusader
Here is the Hasegawa F-8E Crusader modified to be an F-8E(FN)/F-8P, using the Cutting Edge slats and flaps, dive brake, and cockpit, with decals from MDC.
By 1962, the Marine Nationale was undergoing rapid modernization, with two new [...]
A.K.A. “Val”
Here is my just completed Aichi D3A1 Type 99 dive bomber, AKA “Val”. It is a Hasegawa 1/48 scale kit, no ‘aftermarket’ stuff unless you count the seat belts which are aftermarket masking tape, or some of the markings, which I [...]

1/48th Hasegawa F6F-3 Hellcat
When I saw the actual photo of this plane, I just knew I had to build it. Other than the quite unusual white paint trim, it's pretty much a standard WWII tri-color Hellcat. I know it was from a Navy squadron but I have yet to identify [...]
P-40N-5 LuluBelle of the Burma Banshees 1/32
Over the past few days I noticed that the venerable P-40 has been coming out of the woodwork, and some mighty fine works too! This one is the second one in my collection and one of my personal favorites.
These plane represents a P-40N-5 [...]
Heinkel He-111 H6 – Hail and Farewell
Here's Revell's reboxing of the Hasagawa 1/72 Heinkel. My oldest daughter asked if I had a model for her youngest son's bedroom (I'd already given her older boy a 1/48 F4 Corsair), and when I looked through the garage I found this little [...]
Kittyhawk Mk.IV 450 Sqn. RAAF, Vatso, Italy, 1944.
Being very partial to RAAF desert camouflage, I couldn't resist this Hasegawa 1/48 scale kit. Goes together beautifully. The 'No Orchids" cowling panel was apparently moved to successive aircraft , hence the green background to this [...]
