“Berlin, April 1945″
Here's my small dio/vignette featuring Tamiya's JSU-152. It's intended to depict the Soviets advancing through Berlin in early April 1945, right before the end of the war.
The JSU-152 was built OOB. It's a wonderful kit that goes together [...]
Tamiya 1/35 M51 Super Sherman
Here's my Tamiya M51 Super Sherman. The kit was built OOB (out-of-box) with no extras added.

1/48th Tamiya Mosquito, Sea Mosquito Conversion
After seeing the video of the restored Mosquito, KA114 posted by the editor, I thought I would post my Mosquito build here. I don't build much British, but I do love the Mosquito and think that it is one of the best looking aircraft ever [...]

Roden 1/48th Gladiator Mk.II in Finnish Service

This is Eduard's crisp little Nieuport 17 with a some extra detailing. The kit cockpit is fairly simple, with a flat floor with a step for the seat and molded in heel boards. It looks fine once it's all closed up. However, in an attempt [...]
Hasegawa 1/32nd Messerschmitt Bf109G-14
This short-tailed Bf109G-14 was the benificiary of a tail swap from their Hartmann 109G-6 kit. It was built to represent the mount of Lt. Heinz Ewald of 7./JG-52 while based at Veszprem, Hungary in the Fall of 1944. Ewald survived the [...]

Building The “Double Hun” in 48th scale.
It has been 30 years or so since I built the Monogram F-100D “Super Sabre”, one of my favorite airplanes and one of my favorite models. I still have it in the display case after all these years. Several years ago I got a hold of a [...]
