F-16C Block 32 ANG Arkansas, Tamiya 1/48
This time I'll add the smaller Viper from Tamiya.
The machine is marketed by the National Guard of the State of Arkansas.
The kit was supplemented with the brake shields and RBF flags from Eduard and the Plusmodel ladder.

Tamiya 1/48 scale Nakajima, Gekko Night Fighter Type 11 Late version
Originally designed as a long range fighter, the Nakajima Irving (as it was know as) was soon outclassed by other fighters. It was relegated to recon duties primarily, until a field design modification proved its worthiness as a night [...]

The Flying Tank
This is the Tamiya 1/48th Ilyushin Il-2 Sturmovik
It's built straight from the box. The only addition was the pilots seat harness. All the paints used were Tamiya acrylics. The wing joint was so good, I painted the fuselage and wings [...]
TAMIYA 1/12 SUZUKI GSX1100S KATANA
Well, this one is now complete. Although an older kit from Tamiya it was a good build. With the exception of just a couple of very minor issues.
Starting off was the usual engine build. Seems that almost all of the Tamiya motorcycle [...]
