1/48 Scale Lindberg XF-91 Jet/Rocket Experimental Fighter
Lindberg made an excellent starter kit for the "Advanced" modeler like me, so I went full-bore on the project by scratch-building just about everything.

1932 Ford Street Rod

The kit had a "T" shirt decal included so I wondered how to use it. After cutting around all [...]
