Victory!
Well here she is, Victory 201 COs bird, VF-84, USS Theodore Roosevelt 1989 Maiden Voyage cruise. This is a wonderful kit, but I would say it is not one of Tamiya's shake-n-bake kits. Like their 1/32 P-51, you really need to pay attention [...]
Diamondback Bombcat. 1/48 F-14B Tomcat
Tamiya kit, Steel Beach conversion, Fightertown decals.
AMT 1/48 P-40N “Rosie the Riviter”
Rosie is my entrance into the Teeth and Fangs GB here on iModeler. This A/C flew with the 49th Fighter Group, 7th Fighter squadron, and that's all the information I could find concerning this P-40. I did locate a single B/W photo of the [...]

Tamiya 1/35 Tiger 1 Early Production

Having never built any 1/35 armour when I was younger and after being not so subtly [...]

For years i had wanted to get back into modelling, so finally, in June 2018 and 30 years after finishing a very rushed Victor K2 at the age of about 13 that ended up in the cracker pit i decided i would try my hand again. I had little idea [...]
IJN Yamato
I think everyone needs to build a Yamato. The Tamiya 1/350 with Pontos
1/35 Tamiya Königstiger (1993 kit)
I was three models into this hobby and ready to tackle something more challenging. I had the Tiger II, also known as the King Tiger, Royal Tiger or Königstiger, kit that i had picked up second hand sitting and waiting for me. The kit i [...]
M3 LEE
This is my take on the M3 LEE.
The kit is from TAMIYA and it comes together very well. That said, I’m not too happy with the result. It might be the wrong weathering or color as it did not come out as good as I hoped it would.
Any ideas?
