1721 Lockheed EC-130V Hercules USCG 1/72 Italeri Kit
This is a heavily modified C-130 from Italeri in 1/72 using parts left over from a E-2 Hawkeye that was coverted to a C-2 Greyhound. Seemed a waste to have the radome spare and not use it on a Herc.
The pylon for the radome is scratch [...]
Relics from Mom's House...ancient armor artifacts....
The 70's just don't seem that long ago...gad I've been doing this awhile. I left my parent's bosom at age 27 in 1982, but plenty of bits of me remain behind in the basement, among them these plastic beasties. At the time these were state [...]
UH-1H Huey, A Co. Little Bears, 25th Avn BN, Cu Chi, Republic of Vietnam 1969
Hello! This is the Italeri 1/48 scale UH-1H Huey that I built for a friend and fellow veteran, who asked that I build for his brother, who is also a veteran and also a fellow former crew chief. This is meant to represent his bird while [...]
Sukhoi Su-34 Platypus
This is Italeri's 1/72 scale rendition of arguably the deadliest of the Sukhoi design bureau's fabulous Flankers. The side-by-side seating Su-27 variants are radical developments of the original Flanker interceptor. The Su-27 IB, Su-32 FN [...]
Eurofighter Typhoon
In 1983, Britain, France, Spain, Italy and West Germany formed a consortium to produce a European answer to the Su-27 and the Mig 29. France left the consortium in 1985 and Dassault subsequently produced the Rafale. In August 1986, [...]

Focke Wulf Ta-152 ‘Hohenjager’
The Ta-152 was a short-lived high-level interceptor fielded by the Luftwaffe towards the end of WW II. Developed from the existing Fw-190 D fighter family, it incorporated a new wing, lengthened fuselage and to attain high-altitude / high [...]
DUKW with a Big Block Chevy! What could go wrong?
Sometimes I just have to goof off. This is a 1/35 scale Italeri kit that I modified a bit by
a little engine modification, larger tires and a active rear suspension,(last photo) I really had to modify the real wheel wells to fit the tires. [...]
Fairchild AC-119K Stinger
On the night of 8 May 1970 Capt. Alan Milacek's AC 119K Stinger is patrolling over a remote corner of the Ho Chi Minh Trail. Far below a convoy of North Vietnamese trucks are slowly moving down a valley hugging the Laotion border on their [...]
Staghound Mk.III
I'm not a real AFV fan, but sometimes it's very interesting to build some unusual (to me) model. This is an Italery kit in 1/35 scale. Kit also contains metal barrel, etched parts - so it's a good start for OOB build and fun.
I've replaced [...]
