U-96 "Das Boot"
This is the fourth model I built, and after doing three aircraft, I was in the mood to do a warship. The big Revel 1/72 scale U-boat kit was fairly new at the time, and I was eager to see what I could do with it. The kit is absolutely [...]
1/48 Revell F-84G
One of my first jets was this re-release of Revell's F-84G. Was a real treat to build, parts fit extremely well and this model required no putty at all. Built OOB and the only thing I added were belts. If you like decals this is the kit [...]
SNJ / T-6 1/48th scale Revell / Monogram
Back in the 60's and early 70's it wasn't uncommon to drive through rural airports and come across an ex-Military aircraft on the tarmack. After WWII you could buy one. And many were bought and flown to airports all over the country.
Some [...]
BV 194 by Revell
I built this a few years ago, it's still one of my favourites.
Revell 1/48 F/A -18 Hornet
This is the old Revell kit, from 1990. I built it several years ago, and recently got around to photographing her at the airport. I did use an aftermarket decal set, the SuperScaleInternational set 48-346. It's pretty much built OOB, [...]
Revell’s F-101B Voodoo in 1/72 scale
This is my most recent completion: the little Revell Voodoo in 1/72 scale finished in the colors of 444FIS.
The kit is very nice even straight out of the box, but I ended up adding additional detail to several places. Firstly, wanted to [...]
1/32 Spitfire 24
Since the Spitfire XIV was such a success, here come some more 1/32 Griffon Spitfires.
First up, the Revell Spitfire 24. Out of the box, this kit lacks all sorts of things: accurate cowling, accurate prop, acurate canopy, accurate [...]
Revell Starfury
Babylon 5 kind of grew on me slowly. I was not really impressed by the First season (the lead was and is a Charisma free Zone) but when they "brought in the Bruce" the show really took off.
This is the Revell Starfury (HORRIBLE [...]
Heinkel He 111 H-22
Built from the Monogram/Revell kit. Lot's of fit issues with much filling, sanding, re-scribing. Managed to lose 2 of the guns inside during construction. Got lots of dust in the glass nose from all the sanding. When I attempted to tap the [...]
North African PanzerKnacker
This is the Revell boxing of the Hasegawa 1/48 Henschel Hs129B-2 kit, featuring the North African option (Blue O). Built OOB with tape belts and painted with Modelmaster enamels.
The colours are RLM 79/80 over RLM 65 as the plane was an [...]
