Family, Friends, Food, Florida and Flying but not necessarily in that order…..
Today I had the pleasure of meeting with Jaime Carreon and Joe Caputo (fellow Imodelers) for the very first time in person.
The misses and I headed to New Smyrna today with Jaime and Joe... The first stop was a great visit at American [...]
P-51 Blueprints
A couple years ago a friend of mine from England was building a full scale P-51 cockpit to display at shows. He was, and still is scrounging as many original parts as he can, but needed the blueprints to build the actual airframe. While [...]
Big Beautiful Doll – P-51D Mustang in 1/48
This is a build of Col John Landers' famous 'Big Beautful Doll' with a bit of a twist - at the end of World War 2 he became commander of the 361st Fighter Group which had yellow noses and medium blue trim instead of the 78th Fighter [...]

For your evaluation guys….
Best regards
From the Cockpit
When I was on the road with Collings I shot hours of video footage. The GoPro camera really opened new avenues of filming. I haven't posted many videos, more or less a lack of time to edit, but I'll slowly add more as time permits. The [...]

P-51D Mustang “Little India”
This kit is from Airfix it's a 1/48 scale. It was really easy to build. The decals was not very good so I painted lightning and black bands myself. I do a very hard weathering for fun ?. That all hope you will like my first ww2 model.
Tamiya 1:48 RAF Mustang Mk.III
I had originally planned to build the kit´s clone, ICM/Revell´s Mustang Mk.III, but after getting frustrated with the warped fuselage halves, I decided to get the real thing.
The Tamiya kit was a pleasure to build, everything fitted [...]
1/48 Monogram P-51B “Ole II”
Here's my favorite Monogram kit of all time, the 1/48 P-51B. Over the years I must have built at least six of these (with another 5 in the stash). It is the original mold kit, not the Pro-Modeler re do that came later.
It was built pretty [...]
