Airliners!
I'm currently working on a 1/144 Minicraft DC-8 and Zvezda Tu-154M as a change of pace. I realized that the last airliners I built were the A330 and 767 shown here. I thought I would share them. The A330 is a Revell kit built in 1998. [...]
1/700 Columbo Express by Revell Germany
When launched, the Columbo Express was the largest ship in the world, capable of hauling 1800 containers of cargo at once. She was the largest ship ever launched to be driven by just one propeller. Yet, despite her size, she is crewed by [...]
Higgins PT Boat 1/72 Scratch Built
This is a 78 ft. Higgins class PT boat used in the Mediterranean theater.I was able to locate a set of drawings showing how the boat was configured. I used an old Revell PT-109 hull cutting it down to 78 ft. and then put a new transom on [...]
When the US Air Force had a Navy!
This is my rendition of the old (and I do mean OLD) Lindberg Models 1950's era USAF air/sea rescue boat. I built a similar model as a youngster and couldn't figure why it didn't include torpedo tubes like my Revell PT boat. It was a [...]
1/72 Revell F-111 (prototype)
While the others were old, this one is ancient. Some of you will remember Revell's "frameable box art" series. This was one of those. Accurate or not , how often do you get to do a Navy "Vaark", especially one with [...]

Jagstaffel from the First World War, it is to see the Fokker Dr.I pilot Manfred Freiherr von Richthofen.
I was interested in the plane of the coloring ago recreate it, the kit was a [...]
1/35 Revell Offshore Power Boat
This model has been around for a long time. It hasn't lost it's appeal, and still looks like it's going 100 mph standing still. I wanted mine to be a little different. I remembered a boat I'd seen, being loaded up one morning, in [...]
Revell (1/144th ?) Ekranoplan A-90 Orljonok
There are a few weird models on my shelves, but this is one of the strangest. I couldn't find a scale on the instruction sheet, but it looks at home on my "1/144th & other" shelf, next to the other Soviet stuff. Not really [...]
Revell Martin Mariner, Convair Tradewind, Martin Seamaster (box scale)
From days long past...and reissued, (at least once), came these odd scaled, inexpensive little jewels. .I had already built the Tradewind, as a kid, and re-did it as part of a club project on resurrecting old models, I built a second [...]
1/48 Revell Sikorski H-19
Here's the ancient 1/48 Revell Sikorski H-19 rescue helicopter that I built many years ago. The overall shape of the kit looks very accurate compared to photos I've seen, but detail is basic or completely lacking in most areas. Fit was [...]
