Tamiya 1/6 Harley Davidson FLSTFB Fat Boy Lo
Happy New Year to all.
Here is something that flies but on the ground instead of in the air. This kit was absolute fun to build. Typical Tamiya superb quality let down only by the sub standard brake rotors and exhaust mufflers which were [...]
Tamiya 1/48 P-38

Another Tamiya Spitfire Mk.IX
I’m not going to go into a ton of detail on this build since there are hundreds of WIP builds on this bird out there, but to say it’s many mini-kits in one, is an understatement. After some research I chose Johnnie Johnson’s version [...]
