Starfighter F-104 Evaluation Swiss Air Force

Grumman F-11F-1F SUPERTIGER, Douglas A-4D-2 SKYHAWK

Hasegawa N1K2-J ‘George’, 1/48. The Violet Lightning.
Seeing certain aircraft sometimes brings back a memory, for me the N1K2 reminds me of playing Combat Flight Simulator 2 when I was 8 years old, I always thought of it as the 'fat Japanese plane with the big guns and the cool cockpit'. [...]
Hasegawa, Nakajima Ki44-II, Hei Shoki (Tojo) of the 104th Flight Regiment
Once again I found myself at the Hobby Store wanting to do something easy and relaxing and for some reason the store owner likes to have Nakajima Ki44 1/48 kits on the shelf. Apparently they sell. This would be a short quick build . . . [...]
1/350 Mikasa
The 1/350 Hasegawa Mikasa has been sitting around in my stash for a while. I had gotten the photo etch upgrade and wooden deck. Since I was on spring break and the speech and debate season ended I decided to finally build it. The lifeboats [...]
1/200 Hasegawa C-130 Blue Angels

1/48 JU-87R-2 Stuka, Hubert Polz’s desert snake, 6./St.G 2, 1941, Tmimi, Libya
This is my interpretation of Hubert Polz's JU-87R-2 Stuka while stationed at Tmimi, Libya in 1941.
There are only a few (4, I believe) photo's of this aircraft, so a lot of the scheme is speculative (even the color of the snake is [...]
Eurofighter Typhoon
JG74 Luftwaffe RED FLAG ALASKA 122 June 2012
The 1/72 kit from Hasegawa is excellent. Great fit, fantastic detail, lots of weapon configurations and that amazing hard plastic that characterise them. I added the rivets and one or two extra [...]
USS Bon Homme Richard (CV/CVA-31) 1/700 Double Build
This is a "double build" of the same subject - the Essex class aircraft carrier Bon Homme Richard (CV-CVA-31) as it appeared in 1945 off Japan and 23 years later in the Gulf of Tonkin off Vietnam. (Build log is at (link) ).
My [...]
