1/48 Tamiya A6M3 Type 32
This kit is certainly showing it's age as the detail is very limited and its very basic when compared with today's releases from Tamiya or Hasegawa. The engine is only half molded, and the kit is an odd mix of raised (which I rescribed) [...]
1/48 ICM P-51B
This is ICM's knock off of the Tamiya kit. It is so close that the parts are virtually interchangeable. However that is where all similarities end. This kit is nowhere nearly as well engineered as the Tamiya kit and given it's low price [...]
1/48 Tamiya Bf-109E-7 Trop
Of JG.27, somewhere in the North African desert.
1/48 Tamiya P-47D15 Thunderbolt
This is 1/48 Tamiya P-47D15 with the markings of 404th Fighter group, 9th US Air Force in England during June 1944.
This project is to bring back memories of my childhood days (maybe the happiest days of our lives) in the 70s. This [...]
Tamiya 1/35 – M-51 Sherman
A period of me-time between contracts afforded the opportunity to make Tamiya's new 1/35 M-51 Sherman. I've been wanting to build a HVSS Sherman for ages and this kit is an absolute ripper - easy to build with fantastic detail straight out [...]
1/48 Tamiya F4F Wildcat
Built straight out of the box after being rescued at a yard sale. The model had been painted with a dark blue rattle can and most of the detail had been badly obscured. Luckily the paint stripped off easily with oven cleaner. I only [...]
Battle of the Bulge M4A3E8 Sherman U.S. 4th Armoured Division Bastogne.
Hi Guys,
Here's a vignette of my M4A3E8 Sherman that I built using Tasca's excellent Sherman kit. I wanted to model a picture of an "E8" during the battle of the bulge and I found a picture of one that was taken just outside [...]
Supermarine Spitfire Mk1 'LO-B, 602Sqn, 1940 (Tamiya 1:72)
As beautiful as the Spitfire is when its all 'buttoned up', I wanted to depict one stripped down as if in maintenence. This was a real challenge in such a small scale but I think it worked. The base is hand-made from Beech and I used [...]
1/32 TAMIYA Spitfire Mk.IXc
This is my 1/32 Tamiya Spitfire Mk IXc finished with the markings of PT396 / EJ-C flown by Wg. Cdr. Jack Charles RCAF, OC Tangmare Wing in August 1944. I built this kit approx 2 years ago.
It s possible to describe that this is the [...]
"Right of Way"
This dio is supposed to take place in the Normandy bocage on or immediately after D-Day. This is old stuff, the Stug is the old original Tamiya 'G', much reworked and kitbashed with parts from the Stug IV kit, with tracks from the old [...]
