Hasegawa 1/48 F-18D Hornet

Hasegawa's Hornet is a challenging model. The mold is well detailed with a fine recessed panel surface, but has a few fit issues. Nonetheless, it is an impressive model like this great aircraft.

RCAF CF-188B Hornet in 1/48

A build of Kinetic's 1/48 scale F-18A/B kit as aircraft '934' of the Royal Canadian Air Force, based at Bagotville, Quebec. This was a special build project for me as I was lucky enough to fly in 934 with 425 Squadron in May 2023 while [...]

1/72 Hasegawa F/A-18C Hornet

I know, it's hard to get too excited about a teen series. And yet, it must be done: what respectable modeler worth his Tamiya tape doesn’t have at least a couple teen series models collecting dust on a shelf? I don’t recall why I [...]

2022 Build Review: When Double Builds Go Bad

2021 was such a good year. I finished 13 models – eight 1/72 aircraft, a 1/72 88mm gun, and four 1/700 Essex-class carriers, one a major kitbash. 2022, by comparison saw no models finished. Not one. Instead I started on one 1/700 [...]

Providing a Road Map for 1/700 Essex Class Modernization1/700 USS Hornet (CV/CVS-12) Double Build

I had so much fun with my last Essex-class double build of a 1945 and 1968 USS Bon Homme Richard (CV/CVA-31) that decided to try it again, this time focusing on a better way to convert a model of a straight-deck WW II Essex into a postwar [...]

Hasegawa 1/72 F/A-18F Super Hornet VFA-102

Hasegawa's 1/72 F/A-18F, built in 6 days. I used Mr.Color mainly to paint and weathering. I set figures made by Tori Factory.

F/A-18C Hornet; HobbyBoss 1/48

Nice model, nice construction, very intresting kit, some problems with gaps but nothing difficult to fix; there are some instruccions and decals flaws, so, you have to be careful during the construction time. I really enjoyed built this [...]
