Tamiya scale model kits

Accurate Miniatures F3F-1

This is my favorite kit of all time. 1/48 scale. I painted this entirely with Tamiya spray cans, except for the red cowl ring. The cowl ring was painted with a Testors lacquer spray can red that was an exact match for the Yellow Wings [...]

Tamiya F4F-4 Wildcat 1/48

The Tamiya Wildcat was a nice kit to build, clever parts breakdown and no fit problem (as with most Tamiya kits); the only extra I put in to it was some details in the cockpit. There was a lot of talk about the floor in this kit (as the [...]

F4U-1A Corsair VF-17 “Jolly Rogers”

This is my Tamiya 1/48 Scale F4U-1A corsair painted in the markings of Lt. JG. Danny Cunningham during his first tour with VF-17 flying out of Ondongo Airfield in the South West Pacific. Hope you like it. David.

Supermarine Spitfire F Mk.24 – 1/48 Eduard, Aires, Falcon,..

Tamiya 1/72nd scale Fw-190A-3

Built out of box. Used Model Master Paints and Aero Master decals. A fine piece of stainless steel wire was used for the antenna.

Built out of box. Used Model Master paints and Eagle Cal decal sheet for markings.

Tamiya He-219 Uhu

Built a couple of years ago, went together like a dream. Fun.

1/48 F4U-4 Corsair (Tamiya + CMK)

Hello, This was my fist attempt at a major conversion to get a nice looking F4U-4 in 1/48. It was not an easy conversion as some of the CMK resin shrank but eventually, with a little work and some Ultracast flaps, it all came together. [...]

Tamiya 1:48th F4U-iD

I took up the challenge of a few commission builds, for a chap who builds R/C. His mission brief was for reference kits in 1:48th of RNZAF a/c used in the PTO. Normally his preference was for moderate weathering. However, due to the [...]

Tamiya 1/48 P-51D “Little Freddie”

Hello all, First off, an introduction. I'm currently a senior in high school and I have been modeling for a year and a half. In that time I have ruined a few models but have also pumped out quite a few good ones as well. The pictures I [...]
