Tamiya 1/48 Do 335A Pfeil
The clean lines of the Pfeil makes Tamiya's kit a pleasure to build and the authentic look of the model when completed. The only criticism I have is the rather modular design of cockpit components and the instrument decal.
1/35 Tamiya DAK Pz IV
Got a great deal on a Tamiya 1970’s panzer IV. I built it mostly stock except for the tracks because they were very brittle and broke as soon as I put any tension on them. I had a set of Academy single link tracks which I used. I [...]
Tamiya F-84G Thunderjet, 1/48 scale
Hey Party People! Here is my recently completed Tamiya F-84G Thunderjet in 1/48 scale. I designed and cut my own masks for the nose number and roundels with mixed results. PE belt buckles from Tom Anyz were used along with Tamiya tape to [...]

After a six month absence I've returned and finished this P-40N that I started in March 2024. Took me awhile to get back at modeling after losing my wife of 54 years to a sudden illness in April. She was my best supporter of this little [...]
Tamiya 1/48 F4U-2 Bird Cage Corsair
One of the best kits ever produced.
Mazda MX-5 NC
This is the third generation Mazda MX-5 which was sold 2005 – 2015.
The kit is Fujimi’s Mazdaspeed Roadster, #4633. Typical Fujimi, the kit is well designed. The kit has a fully detailed engine bay (Yay!). Fujimi even provides pre-cut [...]
