Two Tanks
Here are a few pics of my only armor models. One is the Tamiya Panther Pzkpfw. V Ausf. A and the other is the Italeri M24 Chaffee light tank. Both are 1/35 scale. These are the only two I've built so far and I think they are easier [...]
1/48th Tamiya Me-262
After seeing Grega X post on his beautiful Me 262 I thought I would put my effort up here also. I have to agree, this kit is awesome, I have built the Monogram and Dragon Me 262 in 48th scale and this one is better on all levels.

There aren't any problems [...]

After seeing all the Wildcats with the beautiful medium blue over gray. I thought I would post pictures of my Grumman Duck. I finished it earlier this year. It was my first biplane, but I got the bug and wanted to finish a model with [...]
Tamiya F4F Wildcat
I've built about 40-45 1/48 model aircraft over the last 25 years (yes, I am the world's slowest builder, lol) but this Wildcat was my first Tamiya kit. I finished it last year and I have to say that all I had heard about its ease of [...]
Tamiya 1/48 scale P-51D Mustang with Custom Markings for a Christmas Present
This idea hatched in August, 2011 when my sister expressed her love for the Mustang! "It's shiny and sounds so cool"! Little light bulb in my head went "Ping!" and this was the result. It is my first time playing [...]
