Tamiya scale model kits

Eastern Front Field Briefing

German Soldiers at a Field Briefing. I very much enjoyed this little kit of figures from Tamiya. I plan to expand on this Eastern Front Theme by adding a Tiger Tank in winter Whitewash with a Crew in winter camo in back of this field [...]

Spitfire Mk.I in 1/48 by Tamiya.

This was going to be a double build along with the new Airfix Mk.I, but when I got started I just kept going. This kit just falls together & the only modification was to reduce the windscreen side panels to improve the proportions. [...]

Tamiya 1/48 Me-262s

I wasn't particularly happy with the Tamiya Me-262 kits when they came out 12 years ago. Tamiya managed to drop the slats and drop the flaps on their Bf-109E, but they couldn't do it on their Me-262? To this day, the Monogram kit is [...]
