Hard to believe - and yet true: The Waco CG-4, one of the most built aircraft in history!
The Waco CG-4 cargo glider
Looking at this plywood and canvas construction, it is hard to imagine the bundle of most remarkable facts associated with this iconic cargo glider.
One thing right up front: with over 13 900 produced, the Waco [...]
Sonderwagen M8, Pt 1
Greetings to all forum members.
On this occasion I wanted to show you a project that I quickly realized in the last weeks.
Going through my boxes, I found an old Italeri kit: the M8 "Greyhound" armored vehicle. It is a kit that [...]

Disguised Aquatic Eyes in the Sky…1/48 Arado Ar196A-3, Handelsstörkreuzer 3 “Widder”
Here´s my dad´s fourth and last seaplane for a while. Italeri kit oob, fit is mostly only mediocre. The gunsight is molded onto the instrument board but was in the way of the windshield. So my dad cut it off and replaced it with a part [...]

Definitely missing some riveting panels are quite simplified. As for the [...]
Testors/Itlaeri 1/72 AC-130A Hercules Gunship
This kit fought me pretty much all the way through. Fit wasn't that great, so there was a lot of putty, sand, prime, repeat. The decals looked great, but turned out to be a very stressful part of the build. The glue was thick and [...]
