Curtis P-36A flown by commander of the 20th Pursuit Group, March Field California, November 1939. My 4th P-36 but the hardest being bare metal finish. 2 months on and off, sanding, filling, resabding, priming, more sanding... but [...]
Hobby Craft YP-59 Airacomet 1/48
I built this when I just wanted a relatively easy and uncomplicated build. Of course that didn't mean I couldn't improve the kit by using some resin enhancements. I used True Details Cockpit also the True Details Wheels set. Both [...]

48 Scale Hobbycraft F7U-3M CUTLASS
Again, next to no "in-progress" building photos. The windscreen was painted on the inside then it was glued onto the fuselage by using Future Floor Wax, (FFW). I coated the seam with thin super glue and sanded the outside from [...]
