Defiant!
Here’s my interpretation of the Boulton Paul Defiant Mk. I, N1801, “Coimbatore II”, from No.264 Squadron, Royal Air Force Duxford, flown by Flying Officer F. D. Hughes and Sergeant F. Gash (gunner).
This is another excellent 1/48 [...]

Me262 Night Fighter 1/48th Dragon
I finished this kit a few years back. Simply said, it is no Tamiya! I have not built a lot of Dragon model kits, but what I have built have all had the same trait. Basically subcomponents or assemblies fit together well, but when you [...]
1/48 Hobby Boss ME-262 b-1a/u1 Night Fighter
A great kit. Went together without any issues. Appears to be a well researched and accurate kit.
Added some air to air missiles. I know, there is no evidence to support these missiles on the aircraft. I had some left over and thought [...]
P-61 "Nocturnal Nemesis" – 1/48 Great Wall Hobby
The P-61 has always been one of my favorite aircraft from WWII. When they first came out I built two of the Monogram kits and had a ball with them. I even put electric motors in one so that the props would spin. All in all I think the [...]
He-219 Uhu, by Tamiya in 1/48
When I got back into modeling, I had been out for a long time and was amazed at what detail could be attained with resin. So of course I took a very good model the Tamiya He-219 Owl, and try and make it better. I used the Aires resin [...]
Second Beaufighter
The first Bristol Beaufighter model I built was in the early 1970's when I was a teenager. It was 1:32 scale and I remembered that it didn't fit together very well. I recall painting the model entirely in black and even fabricated the [...]
Airfix 1:72 Boulton Paul Defiant. new tooling
As I've just joined iModeler, finding my way around, I like to share one of my recent builds.
Airfix introduced the new tooling for the Boulton Paul Defiant in 1:72 scale, and I allways had an intrest in this somewhat unusual fighter.
It [...]
Tamiya 1/48th Do-335 Arrow Nachtjager
Inspired by Erich's excellent rendition I thought I would add my own version of this "hypothetical" aircraft. It will have some of you seeing doubles, but I think its cool. I have always enjoyed seeing how two different [...]
1/48th Tamiya Me-262
After seeing Grega X post on his beautiful Me 262 I thought I would put my effort up here also. I have to agree, this kit is awesome, I have built the Monogram and Dragon Me 262 in 48th scale and this one is better on all levels.
I [...]
