Grab bag of 1/48 P-51D’s

Older builds of P-51D’s I did. First up, the Hobbycraft copy of the Fujimi kit. Decals from the Tamiya F-51D . Don’t remember what extras were used to spruce it up. Next, a couple of Testors Authentiplate P-51D’s. Markings for [...]

Editor's showcase: 1/48 Tamiya P-51C "Lou III"

This might be one of the last good chances to impress anyone with a completed Tamiya 1/48 P-51B Mustang kit, so here it is! I finished this model some three years ago, and it still stands as one of my personal favorites. Building it was as [...]

Tamiya 1/48 scale Fairey Swordfish Mk. I

I won this kit with the extra photo-etch detail set in a club raffle a few years ago and finally got around to building it. Although it's well engineered, I found it a challenging project due partly to the complex paint job and partly to [...]

Tamiya 1/32 F4C

There has probably been more misinformation published on 64-0829 than almost any other Phantom. I have tried to build this jet as it may have looked on the 30th March 1967 when the then Col. Robin Olds led a low level strike against the [...]
