Airfix 1/48 F-51D Mustang

The outbreak of the Korean War on June 25, 1950, found the United States less prepared to go to war than it had been on December 7, 1941. The year before, the three fighter groups in the Far East had been re-equipped with the F-80 Shooting [...]

F2H-2 Banshee on USS Essex Korean War Diorama

This photo was the inspiration for creating the diorama using the 1/48th scale Kitty Hawk F2H-2/2P Banshee with my Rieth Creations Resin Correction Set. I found it a very interesting juxtaposition ("primitive" to 1950s modern), [...]

F-51D Mustang, Korean WarTamiya 1/72

Hi all Here I am again. This time with a model I did last year. This Tamiya Mustang is a beauty to build, very straightforward almost no filler required as we can expect from a Tamiya kit. The aluminium paint is the H8 Chrome Silver from [...]

Monogram F-80C Shooting Star “Salty Dog”

I thought I had posted these pics before but it seems that I haven't. With that in mind, Tom Cleaver's generous compliments in the "Monograms at the airport" thread" moved me to show the few pics that I do have of this [...]
