Hasegawa 1/72 Kfir C-2 – Ecuador
Back when I first got into modeling (mid-80's), one of the first kits I built was the Testor Kfir as an F-21 Navy aggressor. I've always loved the lines of the Mirage family of delta aircraft, especially the modified versions (Kfir, [...]

Two models 1/48 Hasegawa Bf-109 G “Erich Hartmann”
Tonight as promised are the last two models from my "109" assembly line. These are painted as Bf-109 G's that were flown by the all time highest scoring ace in the world... ever.
Erich Hartmann was credited with 352 kills. No [...]
1/32 Focke-Wulf FW-190D
This is the Hasegawa kit built basically out of the box. The decals came from an Aeromaster sheet, seat belts are from Eduard. I don't build a lot of Luftwaffe subjects and used 25 year old tins of Xtracolor German colors to finish this [...]

Vraciu ended the war with 19 aerial victories and 21 more planes destroyed on the [...]
Teutonic Rhino in Norm 81 Scheme
Who does not like F-4 Phantoms, so many schemes, clean or dirty a real workhorse. Norm 81 fascinated me since my USAFE days. I used to say they were painted like German WWII Luftwaffe to my co-workers. Needless to say that is how I [...]
1/48 Hasegawa Bf-109 G-2 “Gunther Rall”
Here is plane for you since I've been posting pictures and writing articles on Armor recently.
This is how I think that Gunther Rall's BF-109 should look based on some research I did online and through some of my books. This was when he [...]
Big Friend,...Little Friend
One of the fun things of belonging to a club is the “Club Projects” that pop up throughout the year. So it was that one of my clubs (We are blessed here in Florida with many such clubs) decided it would be fun to give everyone a 2x2x2 [...]
Hasegawa 1:48 F6F-5 Hellcat
Here's my latest build, hot off the bench - Hasegawa's 1:48 F6F-5, the "10,000th Hellcat" boxing.
The Hasegawa kit can be made into a fine model straight from the box, but I made a few additions and corrections. Good points are [...]
