Tamiya scale model kits

1/48 Tamiya Spitfire Mk.I (new tool), 19 Sqn Op. Dynamo

The Spitfire is complete! This is the new tool 1/48 Tamiya Spitfire Mk. I. The first completion for 2020, let's hope I can keep up with this pace! Just over four weeks from start to finish. Some oils, exhaust stain and a few water colour [...]

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. All 3 landing gears were made out of aluminum and styrene. I cut in the [...]

1/48 Scale P-47D Thunderbolt "SWEET MUSIC."

Back in 2007 I found a photo of this P-47D Thunderbolt and I bought a kit of it. The decals came from "AeroMaster Decals." When we moved from Colorado in 2016 to a town near the Los Angeles area of California, the model was [...]

Not a ‘Fury’

Started in 2018 after a good friend realised he just wouldn't be able to 'do it justice', he also included the Legend resin stowage set - which is huge !. Build began in October that year, then I put it to one side in early 2019 to pick-up [...]

1/144th Revell SpaceShip Two & White Night Two.

A 1/25th AMT/ERTL 1961 FORD STARLINER/GALAXIE CAR CONVERSION.

My long life high school friend Edward ask me to build a replica model car and make it look like the real car that he owned. I said yes, because every time I came down to the "GoodGuys" yearly car show in Scottsdale, Arizona I [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Crusader Mk.III

Finally finished a long overdue birthday present from a friend. This is Tamiya 1/48 Crusader Mk.III, paints are Gunze, weathering with Tamiya Weathering Master and AK.

1932 Ford Street Rod

I added another car to my model collection and it was built right out-of-the-box. The car was also called a Classic Cruzer by Monogram. The kit had a "T" shirt decal included so I wondered how to use it. After cutting around all [...]

MiG Group Build recap

First, I would like to thank all the participants to this group build, wheter you finished your builds or not. I must admit, I expected slightly larger participation but I am nevertheless proud of the resulting builds and I hope our group [...]
