1/48 P-47D Thunderbolt by Hasegawa
This is a P-47D which I inherited from a modeler's estate upon his death. He had done some fine work, including the invasion stripes. They had obviously been on the plane for a considerable amount of time because they discolored to an [...]
1/48 scale Ju-87 Stuka by Hasegawa
The Ju-87 will forever be linked with the Blitzkrieg campaigns of WWII. It supported the armored spearheads of the Wehrmacht with deadly accuracy -- becoming known as Flying Artillery. The whistles on the landing gear pants lent a [...]
USS Gambier Bay (CVE-73), Hasegawa 1/350
In 1944, a journalist traveling aboard the USS White Plains wrote, “A jeep carrier bears the same relation to a normal naval vessel that is borne to a district of fine homes by a respectable, but struggling, working class suburb. There [...]
1/72 Hasegawa Curtiss SOC-3 Seagull

The Hasegawa Spitfire Vb dates to the mid-1970s. Despite having raised panel detail, with rescribing it makes up into a nice model, though I recommend picking up both the resin cockpit and the Rotol prop from Greymatter figures, both of [...]
Hasegawa 1/20 1976 Ferrari 312T2
My first car model in nearly 40 years. I had been waiting for decals for my Trumpeter Wimpy Mk.1c, and happened to see this at my LHS, which was sadly going out of business. It still has wings, however.
I have a new-found respect for car [...]
