Tamiya scale model kits

Airfix Fairey Gannet AS4 1/48.

Hi folks, long time no posts and I apologise about that, life has changed for me. My marriage broke down and I am now living with my dear old mum down in Devon. I now have a man cave to build in and astash to play with. Anyhow, I saw this [...]

After some pause, time for a 1/48 vehicle between all the aircraft. Tamiya kit oob, thanks to the quality it was an easy and straight forward build. Painted with AC RC Forrest Greenn Build thread here (link)

Tamiya 1/35 T 34-76 vers chTZ 1943

Ciao, here my last model just finished few days ago. Is a special version of T34-76; I represent the tank early in spring of 1943 with a white wash. My friend Marco gave the commander and this is the results. See you soon Paolo

1/48 Tamiya Il-2 Shturmovik

Finished the 1/48 Tamiya Il-2 Shturmovik. It's a great kit - Tamiya's excellent kit engineering makes it very fun to build. I added riveting to the airframe with a rivet wheel, used Eduard's photo etch for the seatbelts, and also [...]

Italeri 1/48 Sioux (Luftwaffe)

A very straightforward build that I treated as a mojo restorer...I sometimes find myself going down a rabbit hole with an excessive amount of detailing (most of which can't been seen anyway) when I'm building some kits which sometimes [...]

Hasegawa 1/48 P-51D Mustang

In one of my earlier posts I'd mentioned I had build several Accurate Miniatures, Eduard, Airfix, Monogram/Revell, and Tamiya P-51's but not a Hasegawa kit. That is until now and it is a decent kit IMHO. The cockpit is adequate but not [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Heinkel He 219A-7

The Uhu is another gem from Tamiya. An accurate depiction of a complex aircraft that is easy to build. A custom made cockpit tub weight is included to balance the very heavy tail. Hence, there are no build distractions that in turn, [...]

Tamiya Sturmvogel

This is the classic Tamiya Me 262 kit in 1/48. Had started it and a Monogram Schwable way back in 2016. Had wanted to build a plane base at Rheine since I had been TDY at that base when it had F-4F Phantom IIs. Well hit a few hiccups like [...]

Tamiya Ducati Panigale 1199 1/12th

Those of you who got to know me here on iModeler know me as Bike Queen. Well here is the bike that started it all. I was building a Monogram Capsule and Command Module kit complete with resin aftermarket parts, and everything went wrong [...]
