Hasegawa 1/48 Nakajima Ki-27 ‘Nate’
This is Hasegawa's release of an old Mania kit from the 70s. It is a very easy kit to construct and fits together well. It comes with decals and canopies for both the Ki-27a and Ki-27b. The Ki-27 served the Japanese Army Air Force from [...]
1/32 Spitfire on floats
This is the Greymatter conversion to do the Spitfire Vb on floats, using the Hasegawa kit. It definitely looks like a Schneider Cup racer.
Interestingly, the three prototypes were sent to Middle East for trials, and at one point there was [...]
1/32 Spitfire XII
For some reason, the Spitfire XII has always been my favorite of the Griffon Spits, I just like its look. This is MB862, EB-E of 41 Squadron, the last Spitfire XII on operations when it scored 2 German fighters in late September 1944 just [...]
1/32 Spitfire F.R.XVIII
Another Greymatter conversions (ex-Wolfpack) set. Start with a Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire V kit, hack off nose, upper rear fusealge, tail, modify the wings, add on Greymatter cowling, tail, wings, radiators, and spinner/prop. No decals per [...]

A Trio of Hasegawa Macchis
Hasegawa's 1/48 scale Macchi C.202 and C.205 kits are probably the best 1/48 kits of any WWII Italian aircraft to date. Accurate, well-detailed and well fitting, there are many different decal options available for this series of kits. I [...]
Ki-61
Hasegawa's 1/48 Ki-61. I finished this one a couple of years ago. OOB.
3 to cure a 3 year hiatus
It's been 3 years since I last indulged in my obsession, I mean hobby.
I decided to make up for lost time by bulding 3 at a time.
They are almost done, apart from the aerial wires, some weathering and the armoured headrest on Nowotny's [...]
1/48 Otaki F6F-3N
This is the Otaki 1/48 F6F-3 with a Hasegawa F6F-5N cockpit and radome. The canopy is a vacuformed replacement and the decals are Superscale. The underwing insignia is hand painted around the radome. I enjoyed working on this as the kit [...]
